Oval Test: Broad 'browsing' for perfect mask

London, Aug 11 (IBNS) English fast bowler Stuart Broad, who had suffered a fractured nose on Saturday during the fourth Test against India, on Monday posted pictures of masked super hero Batman and super villain Bane, as he might be seen playing the final test with a mask on his face.

"Just browsing the web for a mask to wear at the Oval. Couple of early favourites," Broad tweeted on a lighter note with the pics of Bane and Batman.

Riding on a strong performance by the side which defeated India on Saturday to go 2-1 up in the five Test series, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) on Sunday named an unchanged side for the fifth and final Test match of the series.

Broad was named in the squad.

He retired hurt after a Varun Aaron bouncer hit him. He took six wickets in the Indian first innings to destroy the visitors. He was adjudged the 'Man of the Match'.
