Peter Siddle scored two half centuries at No 9

Peter Siddle scored two half-centuries in the final Test against India, batting at No. 9.He scored 51 in the first innings and 50 in the second, is the first occasion that any No. 9 has made two half-centuries in the same Test (only four No 8s have ever done it either). The closest approach was by Stuart Broad, who scored 64 and 44 against India at Trent Bridge in 2011. Siddle is also the first No. 9 to top-score in both his side's innings in a Test.
