Stuart Broad joined Test cricket's exclusive 600 club as he and Chris Woakes kept England's hopes of a rousing Ashes comeback alive on day one at Emirates Old Trafford.
Three years after taking his 500th wicket at the same ground, Broad completed another century of scalps to join a hall of fame that includes only four other names: Muttiah Muralitharan, Shane Warne, team-mate James Anderson and Anil Kumble.
Among fast bowlers, Anderson and Broad stand alone in the pantheon. The 37-year-old dismissed the series' top run-scorer Usman Khawaja early on and returned after tea to bounce out Travis Head as his landmark victim, overtaking Sir Ian Botham's record of 148 wickets Australian wickets in the process.
But with England in do-or-die territory at 2-1 down heading into the fourth Test, the collective mission in Manchester was even more important than any personal achievements, guaranteeing Woakes a healthy share of the spotlight.
