Stuart Broad described it as a "very special day" after he overtook Sir Ian Botham to become England's second highest Test wicket-taker of all time.
With Botham watching from the commentary box, the 31-year-old seamer bowled Shane Dowrich during the final session at Edgbaston to claim his 384th Test wicket and move ahead of the man he said "inspired" him to play for his country.
It was Broad's third wicket of the Windies second innings and his fifth of the day as England claimed 19 wickets in the day to wrap up a comprehensive win by an innings and 209 runs.
"It's very special," Broad told Sky Sports. "He [Botham] has obviously been a hero of mine, the person who gave me my Test cap back in 2007 and someone who inspired me to play cricket for England with his performances against Australia.
"That inspires young kids so it is very special to be stood by him now and also up there in the rankings with him.
"They add up pretty quickly and there have certainly been some great memories along the way. You don't really remember the wickets you take, you remember the matches you win and those special moments.
"It's a very special day today, having the family here and being able to take a special wicket but it is actually the Test series wins that you remember."
As for the landmark wicket, Broad insists that he was just trying to keep things simple and make the most of favourable conditions for bowling.
"To be honest, it felt like quite a nice time to bowl," he added. "We'd talked about the lights coming on and it going a bit darker, all I was thinking for that whole spell was 'try and hit the top of off stump and if it does anything either way, just make sure you're in the game'.
"Maybe this morning, I did try a bit too hard. This summer I've maybe not had the success I'd like and then you try to chase wickets.
"Even after my first ball, it was given not out when it was close to being three reds [on DRS], Cooky came up to me and just said 'breathe, calm down, it'll happen'. It's great to play with some great mates for a long period of time."
The Nottinghamshire bowler dedicated the wicket to bowling coach Ottis Gibson, with growing speculation that the Barbadian will soon leave the England set-up to coach South Africa.
"I was actually pointing to Ottis Gibson there," Broad said. "Ottis has been a huge influence on me.
"I opened the bowling with him when I started at Leicestershire and he knows my action better than I do! He's been a huge help to along the way, so that was for him."
England's first day-night Test also gave Broad his first experience of bowling with the pink ball and he believes that the way it behaved simplified the bowlers' plans.
"I think you just have to be so disciplined on your line and then if it moves from there, it moves from there," he added.
"I think all our seamers found it moved inconsistently and came out of the hand slightly differently from time to time but, fortunately, we had the experience in the group not to swing it into width and create width to get driven.
"I found it quite an interesting experience. It was different, I wasn't sure what was happening with this ball - 40 overs in we couldn't tell which the shiny side of the ball was."
