But his wife Candice, who was present in the stands had a very different reaction. She was spotted wiping tears from her cheeks after David reached the landmark. Candice tried hard to get a hold of h💦er emotions but the occasion got the better of her.

With this triple hundred, Warner’s score is now the highest individual score at the Adelaide Oval as he surpassed Don Bradman’s 299. He also went past Don Bradman’s score of 334, which was also the highest score of former Australia skipper Mark Taylor.
However, the highest indivi🌊dual score for Australia lies with opener Matthew Hayden with 380. He hit that against Zimbabwe at the Perth Stadium in 2003.
