James Anderson and Stuart Broad have set the standard for any athlete hoping for a long career in professional sport.
That is the verdict of England Test captain Ben Stokes who could only purr with delight at the 12 wickets shared between the pair to steer his side to a record-breaking 10th Test win under his leadership.
Four wickets apiece in the New Zealand second innings, as they were bundled out for just 126, saw England to a thumping 267-run victory - their first on Kiwi soil for 15 years. It took their own remarkable record as a partnership to a mind-boggling 1009 scalps in matches played together, with more still to add to that tally.
