What's the story

James Anderson and Stuart Broad's fiery spells powered England to an emphatic 267-run win in the opening Test versus New Zealand, which was a Day-Night affair.

During the game, the duo scripted history by becoming the pair with the most wickets in Tests.

They now own 1,009 wickets as a pair in whites. Here we look at their stellar stats.

Anderson was at his best throughout the contest as he claimed figures worth 3/36 and 4/18 in the two innings.

While he took important top-order wickets in the first innings, he ran through the tail in his second outing.

Broad, who could only manage 1/72 in NZ's first innings, breathed fire with the new ball in the second outing and recorded 4/49.
