ENG vs NZ: Anderson becomes first fast bowler to achieve this feat – watch

England fast bowler James Anderson has now taken 650 wickets in Test cricket, becoming the first fast bowler to do so. Anderson achieved this in the second Test against New Zealand at Trent Bridge in Nottingham.
The pacer trapped opener Tom Latham at his own pace. Latham tried to release the ball, but it hit the middle of his off-stump, sending him back to the pavilion for just 4.
With this, he has also become the first English pacer to reach the 650 mark. Notably, he is also the leading wicket-taker for his side in Tests.
