English Bowler James Anderson took 500 test wickets. And with this, he became only the third seam bowler following Australia's Glenn McGrath and West Indies' Courtney Walsh. This from a man who admitted earlier this week that he hadn't expected to play much for England. Now, McGrath's total of 563 is within sight for this most brilliant of fast bowlers.Sri Lanka off-spinner Muttiah Muralitharan holds the Test record with 800 wickets, with Australia leg-spinner Shane Warne on 708 and India leg-spinner Anil Kumble on 619.
