London, Jan 28 (IBNS): English pacer Stuart Broad has apologised for his UK minimum wage remark after it was received with angry replies from some Twitter users.

Broad as reported by BBC tweeted: "I've heard if you earn minimum wage in England you're in the top 10% earners in the world. #stay #humble."

"Broad, who is in Australia on England duty, deleted the message after angry replies from some Twitter users," BBC reported.

Broad later tweeted: "Clarifying my earlier tweet, I merely wanted to emphasise my amazement at just how big the world is."

He said, "No offence meant and sorry if any taken. The hashtag was aimed at myself. "

He is currently playing a tri-series in Australia.
