What more can this guy do?
I just don't know how he keeps himself motivated, but playing against the Poms sure gets him fired up.
England put him on the map back in 1993 when he got Gatting with 'that' ball, and he just loves playing against them.
Batsmen must have a plan and not fall into the trap of letting him read them.
He knows what goes on inside their heads and that's why he's got the most wickets in Test history - as well as having a great action.
