What was fascinating however, was England pacer Stuart Broad's comment on post. Broad commented, "World record was looking in danger!" as he referred to Brian Lara's 400 scored against England itself back in 2004 in Antigua.  Englishman's comments made fans interested all more in post because duo share quite a history. In recently concluded Ashes, Broad was all over Warner and made him his 'bunny' as he dismissed Australian 7 times in 10 innings. Warner had a miserable Ashes as he mand to score only 95 runs and created an unwanted record of fewest runs scored by a Test opener across 10 innings of a series.
