1972 - Massie's dream debut

Advertisement

Australia's Bob Massie takes an incredible 16 wickets at Lord's on his Test debut, starting with the scalp of Geoff Boycott. The 25-year-old fast bowler follows up his eight for 84 in the first innings with eight for 53 in the second, breaking a host of records.

Massie played only two more Tests after this series (which ended 2-2), and took just 15 further wickets - but his bowling performance here in June 1972 remains the best by an Australian in Test cricket.
