BIRMINGHAM, England (Reuters) - Stuart Broad hogged the limelight in the dark as England routed a hopelessly outclassed West Indies in the landmark day-night test match at Edgbaston, wrapping up victory by an innings and 209 runs on Saturday.

Broad became the second most prolific wicket taker in English test history, taking his 384th scalp on a remarkable day for the home attack as they shared around 19 wickets to put the visitors' callow batting line-up to the sword.
