Harris broke the back of England&#39;s middle-order with world-class swing bowling as Australia won by 267 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Harris was coming back after an injury which made the spell all the more special.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Stuart Broad, 8\/15 at Nottingham in 4th Test, 2015-16<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Stuart Broad bowled the spell of his life to run through the Aussie batting line-up and record figures of 8\/15 as Australia were dismissed for 60.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Broad also got his 300th Test wicket by dismissing Chris Rogers with a brilliant out swinger as England won by an innings and 78 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>James Anderson, 10\/158 at Nottingham in 1st Test, 2013-14<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>James Anderson led the England attack with elan, returning match figures of 10\/158 as England won the first Test by 14 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Anderson took five wickets in both the innings, but it was the second innings where his contribution was became a stuff of legends as he took figures of 3\/29 before lunch to set England on winning path. Anderson came back to bowl another brilliant spell and seal the deal.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
