The Sydney Sixers have warned public enemy No.1 Stuart Broad to expect a fiery initiation during his Big Bash League debut.
The English Test paceman, who earned the ire of Australia cricket fans for his refusal to walk during the 2013 Ashes series in England, will be the Hobart Hurricanes' star attraction during the tournament.
Sixers quick Doug Bollinger says Broad should expect to be singled out by the SCG crowd, but denies the Sixers will make him a target.
"Absolutely," Bollinger said when asked if Broad would cop some stick.
"You're a bowler down on the boundary then you're going to get it."
"But it's awesome, it's great. Twenty20 is hard, it's great to have him over and I hope he goes well."
Broad comes to Australia fresh off England's tour of India where he struggled with a foot injury.
Broad refused to walk in the first Ashes Test at Trent Bridge in 2013 when he edged Ashton Agar to Michael Clarke but was given not out.
He took 8-15 to help rout Australia for 60 at Trent Bridge last year.
"I think it's great to have a guy like Stuart Broad in the BBL. He's a wonderful guy," Bollinger said.
"Things happen in the Ashes and that's what you're talking about."
The Sixers, last year's wooden spooners, have made one change to their squad following their first-up win over the Sydney Thunder, with Harry Conway coming in for Henry Thornton.
