How will one remember Jason Krejza's debut Test?

12 wickets..... well done, well bowled!

358 runs..... oh dear !!!!

He now holds the record of returning the most expensive match figures on debut, surpassing the 7-282 by DW Carr at The Oval against Australia in 1909. Overall it is the second most expensive performance by any bowler in a Test.
