Veteran England pacer Stuart Broad feels that a lot has been made of the fiery exchange between Ollie Robinson and Usman Khawaja during the first Ashes Test at Edgbaston, adding that if ICC doesn’t have a problem with the matter, then former Australia players shouldn’t be bothered about it.

Robinson removed Khawaja for 141 on Day Three of the first Ashes Test which Australia won by two wickets, knocking back his off stump as he came down the pitch looking to force the ball through the off side. The pacer appeared to swear towards a departing Khawaja during his wicket-taking celebration, inviting huge criticism from ex-Australia players.
