He was the second bowler to claim a five-wicket haul here. Former Pakistan pacer Aaqib Javed was the first bowler to take a wicket on this ground and is third on the list. Aaqib did this in 1997 against India. He picked up five wickets for 61 runs in a quota of 10 overs. Stuart Broad is third on the list. The Englishmen picked up four wickets for just 15 runs against South Africa here during the 2011 World Cup. He bowled with a brilliant economy rate of 2.25.
