When England plucked spinners Tom Hartley and Shoaib Bashir from the fringes of the county game for the Test squad traveling India, eyebrows were raised. Mail Sport takes a look at some of England's unexpected picks from the past.

After a review in Perth, the 36-year-old trapped Faheem Ashraf leg before his wicket on day four of the first Test as the hosts cruised to a 360-run win. Lyon's success was slowed by sickness during last summer's Ashes series, and she is the third Australian to reach this height, following in the footsteps of late Shane Warne and Glenn McGrath. Only Muttiah Muralitharan, who leads the way with a stunning 800, Warne, Anil Kumble, Stuart Broad, McGrath, and Courtney Walsh have received more Test scalps.

Old Trafford has hosted its fair share of Ashes heroics - from Laker's 10-for to Warne's ball of the century - but now England must hope to create further history against Australia in fourth Test

SHUBI ARUN: All attention is now on Old Trafford. The Ashes are heading to Manchester, with the Ashes comfortably positioned at 2-1 in Australia's favour. England may have won a significant match at Headingley thanks to Mark Wood's contribution and Chris Woakes, but nothing less than a repeat appearance will do as the hosts land at Old Trafford. The weather forecast is far from promising, leading to rumors that Ben Stokes will have something special planned and that his team will win by rain in their fourth Test.

HUSSAIN HUSSAIN: Jack Leach and Rehan Ahmed, England spinners, are working together as a team

NASSER HUSSAIN IN KARACHI: On the third day in Karachi, I loved Jack Leach's combination with Rehan Ahmed. On the one hand, you've got the trusted, orthodox left-arm spinner, who will bowl a slew of overs and eke out wickets. On the other hand, the teenage wrist-spinner is playing only his fourth first-class match. He'll bowl the odd bad ball, but good batsmen will also be surprised. On Test debut at the age of 18, to receive a five-for on your first Test debut is a fantastic achievement.

Rishi Sunak's grandparents came with next to nothing, according to GUY ADAMS. But hard work changed everything

Rishi Sunak's remarkable road from Southampton General Hospital, where he was born just over 42 years ago, but he was killed on the A35 just over half a mile away. Here, opposite a Sainsbury's Local, a baker, a hairdresser, a nail salon, a dentist, and a modest corner store with a blue NHS logo and a large square clock over its front door. Sunak Pharmacy, a local hardware store, has been in existence for many decades. It was mainly a family affair from the start of Rishi's mother, Usha, until her death a few years ago, like many successful small businesses. Our future Prime Minister will spend weekends on his bike, giving prescriptions to customers during his teenage years. And after choosing to study economics at A-level, he began helping out by reading the books.
