Dale Steyn is one of South Africa's all-time greats. He has one of the best ever strike rates in Test cricket, and also holds the record for the fastest to 400 wickets in Tests.

Steyn made his debut in the 2004/05 home series against England, where he picked up his maiden Test wicket. His first victim was Marcus Trescothick, who was bowled neck and crop by a pacy in-swinging delivery from the speedster.
