LONDON (UK): England pacer James Anderson has now taken 650 wickets in Test cricket, becoming the first fast bowler to do so. Anderson reached this landmark in the second Test against New Zealand at Trent Bridge in Nottingham.
The pacer trapped opener Tom Latham with his pace. Latham attempted to leave the ball but it crashed between the middle and his off stump, sending him back to the pavilion for just 4.

With this, he also becomes the first English pacer to reach the 650-mark. Notably, he is also the leading wicket-taker for his side in Tests.

He is currently the third-highest wicket-taker in the longest format of the game, just behind Sri Lankan spin legend Muttiah Muralitharan (800) and late Australian leg-spin great Shane Warne (708).
