West Indies great Brian Lara said Friday that Australia should have let opener David Warner go for his record score of 400 in recent Test against Pakistan. Australia declared on 589 for three with Warner on 335 — the 10th highest Test score ever — his first triple century. The declaration deprived Warner of a crack at Lara’s all-time high 400 not out, though Australian bowlers quickly tore through Pakistan’s top order in Adelaide and the home side won the Test by an innings and 48 runs to sweep the two-match series. “I felt that David Warner should have been given an opportunity to go for it,” Lara told a charity event in Mumbai.
