Stuart Broad has praised team-mate Matt Prior after the England players rescued a man who was preparing to jump off a bridge in Sydney, Australia.
The pair found the man on the edge of a bridge in Darling Harbour and Prior spoke to him for about an hour before managing to talk him down.
Broad said Prior was “pretty inspirational†in the way he spoke to the man, adding “I hope the guy is OKâ€.
Australia coach Darren Lehmann said their actions were “pretty specialâ€.
Wicketkeeper Prior, who has since returned home to England, told the Daily Telegraph: “We were trying to help a bloke who was struggling and in a bad way.
“I look back and I’m just glad we left the bar when we did and we were there for him…â€
