Fast bowlers hunt in a pair. One of the most spectacular bowling pairs in modern cricket is the fabulous English duo James Anderson and Stuart Broad. Anderson is the leading wicket-taker in the history of English cricket while Broad has also crossed the mark of 400 Test wickets. Both of them have been terrorizing the batsmen, but a banter on Twitter pitted them against each other.

The spark to the cheeky conversation was provided by a Twitter user named Stephen Jones. Old Trafford cricket ground at Manchester named one of their bowling ends after James Anderson.

Referring to developments, Jones posted a question, “A question I feel needs to be answered ... does @jimmy9 bowl from the James Anderson end at Old Trafford or allow @StuartBroad8 that honour?!”

Stuart Broad was quick to reply to this in-swinging query.
