David Warner admits fondness for England fans’ banter song, “Broady’s gonna get ya…”

The chant refers to Warner’s weak performance against England seamer Stuart Broad, with the Brit dismissing the Aussie 17 times across his career.

In the recently played Headingley Test, Broad dismissed Warner for the 16th and 17th time in a battle that is now a decade old.

Warner, appearing on a cricket podcast – the Vaughany and Tuffers Cricket Club – admitted that he enjoys the banter song that England fans sing about him adding that he relishes his rivalry with Broad.

“Broady’s gonna get ya. The Hollies Stand started that, I love it. I always love facing Broady. We have two left-handed opening batters and he is one of, if not the best, bowler to left-handers in today’s game. He is so good at it. Jimmy (Anderson) is there as well. These are guys we have watched and played against for a long time,” Warner was quoted as saying by The Telegraph.

The Aussie opener was all praise for Broad, extolling his virtues and consistency. “In general these last few years his record against top order batters is incredible. Credit to him and the way he has bowled. I don’t really think about the match up, you think about the ball that’s coming at you, how you are going to score. He bowls in a great area all the time,” Warner said. Warner, has now played 17 Tests across four tours in England without scoring a century, and averaging just 25 stated that England is the hardest place to bat, especially as an opening batter.
