- RW Marsh becomes the first Australian to appear in 90 Tests. His total dismissals in this series reaches 27, which surpasses the record of JHB White (S.Afr.), set in 1961-62 against New Zealand (5 matches)
- For the first time in any Test in which all 40 wickets fell, all innings totals were within 10 runs of each other.
