We'll wait and see: Carey hits back at Broad’s ‘worst Australian team’ remark ahead of Ashes

ADELAIDE: Australian wicketkeeper Alex Carey dismissed Stuart Broad’s remark that England would be facing “the worst Australian team since 2010, ” stating that the tourists would have to “wait and see” in next month’s Ashes, implying that the Aussies are still strong and can't be written off.

Responding to ex-Australia batter David Warner's prediction England would lose the series down under 4-0, Broad launched an early attack, describing Australia's current Test team as the worst since 2010. "You wouldn’t be outlandish in thinking – it’s actually not an opinion, it’s a fact – it’s probably the worst Australian team since 2010 when England last won. And it’s the best English team since 2010, ” he had said on his podcast For The Love Of Cricket.

Now, reacting to Broad's comment, Carey told reporters on Tuesday, "No comment, is that what he said, did he? I guess we will wait and see. All the guys have played against Stuart in the past and we know how big a competitor he is and how much he’s done for Test cricket."
