The 39-year-old cricketer has launched a successful broadcasting career since retiring from the sport in 2023, but served as a consultant for South Africa ahead of the World Test Championship Final against Australia in June and hopes that will be the start of another path for him, having already had discussions with England managing director Rob Key.

He told Telegraph Sport: "I haven’t set any sort of targets or dates of coaching or what’s to come, but probably next year I’d start looking at dipping my toe into it a little bit more.

“It’s certainly something I want to stay connected to, the coaching. I’ve chatted to Rob Key a little bit about doing some stuff with the younger bowlers in the England set-ups when the schedule suits.

“The under-19s or even under-17s – you really know what you’re developing, and you’ve got your base of technique, but the growth you can make between 15 and 20 is huge.”

Stuart insisted the game never came easy to him so he'd like the opportunity to share the knowledge he gained with others.

He said: "I wasn’t one of those players who the game came easy to. I had to work at it. I had to figure out exactly what my strengths were and where I could improve all the time. So I feel I’ve got a lot of knowledge that I can share.

“As a player, I think I had one of the best filters going, which meant I could get loads of information, and I would filter that down to what was relevant to me.

"That’s such a crucial skill, from 15 to 20, because you will get loads of different information, and not all of it is correct, probably only five per cent of it is relevant to you. But if you can use that five per cent to your advantage, you grow so quickly.”
