In a familiar tale of torment, Stuart Broad continued his dominance over David Warner as he dismis🍃sed the Australian opener for the 15th time in Test cricket, marking the highe꧙st number of dismissals by any bowler against Warner.
The battle between the two 𒁃has been one-sided♏, with Warner averaging a mere 18.93 in Test cricket when facing Broad.
Broad’s success against Warner has been particularly evident in matches played in England, where he has claimed Warner’s wicket nine times in 14 encounters. The Ashes contests on English soil have been especially harsh for Warner, who averages a meagre four runs against Broad.
During the second day’s play of the Edgbaston Test, Broad once again had the upper hand as he sent Warner back to the pavilion early in Australia’s first innings. Warner managed just 9 runs off 27 balls before falling victim to Broad’s prowess.
The pivotal moment occurred in the 11th over when Broad bowled a well-pitched delivery outside off. Warner attempted to cut the ball but was undone by a slight inward movement, resulting in a thick under-edge that crashed into his stumps. The disappointment was evident on Warner’s face as he threw his head back upon hearing the sound of timber. Meanwhile, Broad was seen celebrating the dismissal of his bunny with England teammates.

This dismissal added to the nightmares that Broad has inflicted upon Warner throughout their encounters on the cricket field. With his brilliant bowling and ability to exploit Warner’s weaknesses, Broad has undoubtedly established himself as a nemesis for the Australian left-hander.
As the Test match progresses, Warner will be eager to find a way to overcome this ongoing battle and contribute significantly to Australia’s efforts. However, for now, Broad can relish yet another successful tussle against the formidable Warner.
