    With 12 wickets in four games, he was England's second-highest wicket-taker in the competition (ER: 4.19).

    At 18 years and 124 days, Rehan became England's youngest Test cricketer, displacing Brian Close (18 years and 149 days).

    He further created history on Day 3 of the contest, becoming the youngest-ever bowler to claim a fifer on Test debut (5/48).

    Stats
