England captain Ben Stokes said veteran seam bowlers James Anderson and Stuart Broad were setting the standard for his team after they helped the tourists to a crushing victory over New Zealand in the first test on Sunday.
In helping England to a 1-0 lead in the two match series, the seam duo also surpassed Australia's Glenn McGrath and Shane Warne as the most prolific bowling partnership in test cricket history, with 1,009 wickets from 113 matches together.
"Seeing them with three Lions on their chests is great and I don't really want to think too far ahead as to when they might call time on their careers."
