Australian fans have reportedly spent 10, 000 dollars upon T-shirts condemning England pace bowler Stuart Broad for refusing to walk during the recent Ashes series in England.
However, Broad seemed unworried with his official branding as Australia's Public Enemy No.1 as he has taken five Australian wickets, including Chris Rogers, David Warner, Shane Watson, captain Michael Clarke and Mitchell Johnson on the first day of the Ashes opener at the Gabba.
According to News.com.au, Melbourne academic Googan Djerra has unveiled a range of T-shirts protesting against Broad, accompanied by the slogan: 'Never forgive. Never forget'.
The report mentioned that Broad stood his ground in the first Test in July despite replays showing he edged an Ashton Agar delivery which deflected off wicketkeeper Brad Haddin to Michael Clarke at first slip.
Djerra said that Broad's actions were a clear breach of the spirit of cricket and his anti-Broad shirts have been snapped up in their hundreds by the Australian public, adding that the T-shirts are a protest against England and the fast bowler for going against the spirit of the game.
