Mitchell Johnson (2013-14)

Mitchell Johnson celebrates the wicket of James Anderson in 2013

Johnson breathed fire with the ball in the 2013-14 Ashes, sending the English batsman packing with 37 wickets in five matches, and followed it up with memorable performances against South Africa, especially in the first Test where he took 12 wickets in just 33 overs of pure pace. His troubling speeds, combined with deadly movement and a searing aggression, helped him capture wickets in both Tests and ODIs in the Baggy Green.In eight Tests in the 2013-14 season, he bagged 59 victims, with an average of 15 and 5 five-wicket hauls included.
