163: Phillip Hughes and Ashton Agar, Australia vs England at Trent Bridge, Nottingham, 10-14 July 2013. Australia had slumped to 117 for 9 in reply to Englands first innings 215 when 19-year-old Agar joined Hughes in the middle. Agar, who made his debut in this match, counter-attacked in style, and hit 12 boundaries and two sixes in his 101-ball 98; and was unfortunate not to become the first No. 11 to score a Test century. Agar and Hughes partnership gave Australia a 65-run lead; but James Anderson had the last word in this tense match as England just edged out Australia. BRIEF SCORES: England 215 (Jonathan Trott 48, Jonny Bairstow 37, Peter Siddle 5-50, James Pattinson 3-69) and 375 (Ian Bell 109, Stuart Broad 65, Kevin Pietersen 64, Mitchell Starc 3-81, Peter Siddle 3-85) DEFEATED Australia 280 (Ashton Agar 98, Phillip Hughes 81*, Steven Smith 53, James Anderson 5-85, Graeme Swann 2-60) and 296 (Brad Haddin 71, Chris Rogers 52, James Anderson 5-73, Stuart Broad 2-54).
