Legendary England pacer James Anderson completed 1,100 wickets in first-class cricket on Sunday during England's first Ashes Test against Australia at Edgbaston, Birmingham.

On day three of the first Test in the 99th over of Australia's first innings, Anderson ended his search for a wicket by dismantling Alex Carey's stumps for 66 off 99 balls, thus ending his 118-run partnership with Usman Khawaja.

"Jimmy Anderson. GOAT. The King of Swing gets First Class wicket number 1,1100! Alex Carey departs for 66. #EnglandCricket | #Ashes" tweeted England Cricket.
