That was Jimmy's 32nd Five fer and is now five behind the late and great Warney, he won't catch Murali but just shows what a career he's had. 

 

1200 test wickets between him and Broad is fucking ridiculous 

 

Edit. Looking at the top wicket takers list McGrath and Warne the only ones who appeared together, 1271 between em
