England cricketer Stuart Broad has vented his frustration on Twitter about a press photographer who was 'following' him while relaxing in Australia.

Pictures have emerged this week of the bowler enjoying some down time at the Sydney Harbour with a female companion after being rested for England's first two one-day internationals against Australia.

It appears that Broad is not happy with the attention as he recovers from England's Ashes whitewash defeat to the Aussies.

The bowler wrote on Twitter: "I need new clothes yes. The photographer needs a whole new life. Followed me all day in a silver touraeg. I'm pointless leave me alone!!"

England managed to win their warm-up game against a Prime Minister's XI in Canberra by 172 runs earlier this week.
