Stuart Broad says 'sleep affected' by 'five-minute' Test axe call
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.
