I'll chuck a sly tenner that he won't. Body will give up and he will play T20 to finish of an amazing career.

He doesn't play international T20 anymore. He said he will on play selected ODI series as well. South Africa seldom play more than 8 Tests per year.

It's a question of whether he goes on an absolute tear and snares 50-60 poles in the next 8 Tests.

A couple more unbelievable statistics for Dale Steyn's 400 Test wickets.

Steyn bowled 16654 deliveries for his 400 wickets, some 3600 fewer then previous record holder Sir Richard Hadlee.

Steyn's strike rate of 41.5 is also a new record, again surpassing Hadlee who held the record with a strike rate of 50.8.

Surely that's the same stat twice?

If Finn can become a mainstay of this team, where do you reckon he'll rate? Strike rate 48.3 is pretty good going.

400 test wickets for Steyn today. what a player. Faster than Hadlee and Mcgrath. Says it all.

Hadlee and McGrath? Hardly the benchmark for fast bowlers.
Oh. You were being ironic, weren't you Buzz. Naughty you.

Nope not many bowlers have made it to 400. He is the fastest quick to make it.

Let's see Finn bowl on subcontinental pitches and see what his strike rate is.

Steyn has a freakish record on the subcontinent, something like 90 poles at 22 and strike rate is 39.7. No wonder South Africa can get away with playing average spinners

He may have 400 wickets and potentially be the best ever quick but have you seen his acting in "Blended"? 

So so very very bad, and he was playing himself!!!!

For those who don't know what Blended is, it's a Sandler / Barrymore (Drew, not Michael) chick flick rom-com type thing that isn't really worth losing two hours for.

His new hairstyle would certainly fit in at Hollywood...
