Headingle: Australian opener David Warner’s Stuart Broad fear does not end. Warner has been dismissed by the English star pacer for the 16th time in his Test career. On the fifth ball of the first innings of the third Ashes test at Headingley, Warner once again returned with the wicket of Broad. With this, Broad reached a breaking record. Meanwhile, among active cricketers, Warner has the shame of being the most dismissed batter in front of a bowler in Tests.
Aussie legend Glenn McGrath is the bowler who has dismissed a batsman the most times in Test history. McGrath has given England’s Michael Atherton a return ticket 19 times. England’s Alec Bedzer, who dismissed former Aussie player Arthur Morris 18 times, is second. Windies legends Courtley Ambrose and Courtney Walsh are close behind, having dismissed Michael Atherton 17 times each. With his wicket in Leeds, Broad came close to the record of West Indies pacer Malcolm Marsh, who dismissed England legend Graham Gooch 16 times. Gooch was dismissed by Marshall and Warner by Broad 16 times in Tests.
It’s happened again!
