Test Bunnies: Most times a batter has got out to same bowler, Warner joins biggest Test bunny Atherton in list

England pacer Stuart Broad dismissed David Warner for the 17th time in his Test career on Friday during the third Ashes Test at Headingley in Leeds. In the ongoing series alone, Broad has dismissed the southpaw three out of six times now.

The feat brought Broad at par with West Indies greats Courtney Walsh and Curtly Ambrose, while Warner has joined former England batter Mike Atherton - the biggest bunny in the history of Test cricket.

Glenn McGrath holds the record for dismissing a single batter for the most number of times. The Australia legend dismissed Atherton, who played 115 Test matches for England, 19 times.

Second on the list is the former England cricketer Alec Bedser who got rid of Australia's Arthur Morris on 18 occasions. Atherton features twice in the last thereafter. Ashes 2023: David Warner dismissed 17th time by Stuart Broad - Full list of dismissals against English pacer

West Indies greats Curtly Ambrose and Courtney Walsh dismissed the cricketer-turned-commentator 17 times each during their legendary careers.

After 36-year-old Warner edged a delivery to Zak Crawley in slip cordon on Day 2 of the ongoing third Ashes Test between England and Australia at Headingley in Leeds, he entered the top-five of the unwanted list alongside Atherton and Morris. Broad, who is now just six wickets away from becoming only the second pacer to pick 600 Test wickets, has joined the company of greats.
