7 Of the finest spells by James Anderson

#7 England vs Australia, Trent Bridge 2013 (5/85 and 5/73)

<p>
Ecstatic English team

The 2013 Ashes began with a thriller, with Aussie Ashton Agar scoring 98 on debut, Ian Bell scoring his first hundred of the series, and Brad Haddin's 65-run partnership with James Pattinson.

It had everything in it. Australia's last-wicket pair took them to within 15 runs of victory, but up stepped Anderson - with nine wickets already in the match - to find the inside edge of Haddin's bat through to Matt Prior and England ran away with the victory.
