DAVID WARNER ended his Ashes series with an horrific average of just 9.5 as Stuart Broad dismissed the vilified Australian batsman for the SEVENTH time.
The controversial opener, 32, reached double figures just twice and made his first-ever pair of ducks in the Fourth Test at Old Trafford in his appalling summer.
Broad had Warner's number all series, getting him out seven times across his ten innings.
The batsman - only recently back in the Test arena following his ban for his role in the sandpaper scandal - nicked Broad behind for 11, his second-highest score of the series, on Sunday.
Warner had only made five in the first innings, as England set Australia 399 to win, on the back of scores of 2, 8, 3, 5, 61, 0, 0, 0 in the first four Tests.
That meant he scored just 95 runs from his ten innings in the Ashes series - good for an average of just 9.5.
ON THE EDGE
And fans were quick to poke fun at the pantomime villain, with the Barmy Army ripping into him on Twitter with a brutal gag.
They tweeted an image of someone pretending to sell Warner's Spartan bat on eBay - captioned: "NEVER USED - David Warner's bat from 2019 Ashes tour."
Someone quickly replied: "Pffft... brand new. The f***ing edges are worn out."
Another concurred: "Middle is immaculate, edges well used."
Edges are a bit scuffed, nothing some good sandpapering won't fix.

A third fan went even further, poking fun of Warner's recent scandal, writing: "Edges are a bit scuffed, nothing some good sandpapering won't fix."
It was also quickly pointed out that England spinner Jack Leach boasted a better batting average this series at 13.5 - and even faced just one ball fewer than Warner, despite batting in the tail.
Warner's most recent dismissal left Australia languishing on 29-2 - after Broad bowled Marcus Harris for just 9 as the visitors chased 399 to win the Fifth Test.
The Aussies will retain the famous urn even if they lose at The Oval, leading 2-1 going into the game in London - with a draw enough to seal the Ashes thanks to their win Down Under in 2017-18.
