A Melbourne-based company has released a line of T-shirts mocking England bowler Stuart Broad, as Internet users also voted him as the English cricketer that most got under Australians' skin.

According to the Courier Mail, coach Darren Lehmann wants to send Stuart Broad home crying, and a T-shirt company is doing its best to make this happen sooner rather than later.

The release of the product comes after Broad hit back at Lehmann in a radio interview broadcast last month, the report said.

The England quick revealed he had rejected an apology from the Aussie coach after he labelled Broad a cheat in a radio interview during the Ashes, the report added.

Broad also reiterated his assertion that he was right not to walk when he edged a ball to first slip, saying it was, something that got blown so out of proportion maybe because the Australians were frustrated they had wasted two referrals, the report further said.

For its part, the T-shirt company, Googandjerra, says it specialises in protesting on issues that deserve attention, such as Japanese whaling, notorious civil wrongs, and apparently, disliked cricketers, according to the report.
