The England pace bowler helped his country win the Ashes Down Under in 2011.
He played just 12 Test matches and made a total of 28 appearances for England in all formats, but walked away from cricket having bowled the decisive delivery in an Ashes victory Down Under.
Having worked his way through the England ranks, he made his one-day international debut against Bangladesh in 2005 and played in his first Test against India two summers later. A return of 15 wickets in three Tests against Sri Lanka cemented his place in England’s pace attack and after undergoing back surgery, he toured Australia again in 2013-14.
