The last Englishman to take five wickets and score a hundred in a test was Ian Botham at Wellington in 1984... Kick on Ben. #Ashes
Brad Haddin's 29 dismissals are the most in an #Ashes series, all of which have been caught behind.
Stokes becomes first batsman to pass the bogey 7... And first to double figures. #Ashes
For a moment it looked as if #Stokes was going to be the third batsman to be dismissed on 7.
Clutching at straws with that last tweet!
Of the top 45 #ashes wicket takers of all time, Mitch Johnson ranks as the most expensive with an economy of 3.52 runs per over. #Johnson
