Stuart Broad says he has been hit hard by being left out of the squad for England's tour of the West Indies, claiming he does not understand the decision and that it has made him "confused and angrier with each passing day".
Stuart Broad says he has been left "angry and confused" by England's decision to axe him from their Test squad for the series against West Indies.
(Reuters) - Fast bowler Stuart Broad said on Sunday he had been hit hard by the decision to leave him out of the squad for England's tour of the West Indies.
Stuart Broad on Sunday said his controversial axing from the team to tour the West Indies was delivered in a "five-minute phone call" which has "affected my sleep". Broad, 35, has 537 Test wickets to his name but he and fellow veteran James Anderson, who is the country's record wicket taker with 640 victims, were dropped following the 4-0 Ashes rout in Australia. Anderson, 39, topped England's bowling averages in the series with his eight wickets costing just 23.37 apiece, while Broad took the tourists' first five-for of the trip in Sydney.

England pacer Stuart Broad has finally reacted to his omission from the England Test squad for the series against West Indies, saying he is having a hard time putting things into context. Earlier this week, England named its squad for the three Tests against Windies and both Broad and James Anderson were left out of the squad. "I am struggling to put things into context. It's hard to do so when all you've had is a five-minute phone call and nothing else," Broad wrote in a column for The Daily Mail, reported ICC's official website.
