80 Tests Dale Steyn has taken to reach 400 wickets - the joint-least by a fast bowler. Richard Hadlee also took his 400th wicket in his 80th Test. Overall, Muttiah Muralitharan, who took 72 Tests, is the only bowler quicker to the landmark than Steyn.

13 Bowlers who have taken 400 wickets in Tests including Steyn, who is the ninth fast bowler to do so and the second South Africa bowler after Shaun Pollock. The last bowler before Steyn to complete 400 Test wickets was James Anderson, who got to this landmark against New Zealand in May this year.

16634 Balls it took Steyn to collect 400 wickets - the least, by far, taken by any bowler. Richard Hadlee, who was the previous quickest to the milestone in terms of balls bowled, took at least 3600 deliveries more than those taken by Steyn.

41.58 Steyn's strike rate when he took his 400th wicket, the best among bowlers with 200 or more wickets in Tests. Among bowlers in the 400-club, Richard Hadlee comes closest to Steyn, with a strike-rate of 50.8.
