"How you have always fought and come victorious over your setbacks, Broady my friend you are a legend! Hats off," Yuvraj signed off.
Broad on Tuesday became only the seventh bowler to reach the landmark figure, when he dismissed West Indies opener Kraigg Brathwaite on the last day of the third and final Test of the series.
Players from across the world took to social media to congratulate the veteran pacer as he entered the elite 500-club.
Broad finished the match with ten wickets as England beat the West Indies by 269 runs to clinch the series 2-1.
