Australian opener David Warner had an unforgettable Ashes series last year as England pacer Stuart Broad won the one-on-one battle against the left-hander, dismissing him 7 times in 10 innings. Despite all that, the 34-year-old paid tribute to his Ashes nemesis by joking that the English selectors should drop the paceman more often. Stuart Broad took his 500th Test wicket on Tuesday by trapping West Indies batsman Kraig Braithwaite LBW on the final day of the ongoing 3rd Test in Manchester.

Speaking about the Stuart Broad-James Anderson combination, David Warner said that both the bowlers have the ability to restrict runs.
