England might have suffered a 405 run humiliation against Australia at Lord's last week but it was a different story on July 21 1884 in the first Test match at the 'Home of Cricket'.
The contest was the 15th Test match played in the world and Australia were bowled out for 229 in their first innings with Ted Peate claiming 6-85 off 40 overs, while Billy Murdoch became the first substitute fielder to take a catch in the history of Test cricket.
In response, Allan Steel hit the first Test century, making 148 in a total of 379. WG Grace was out for 14 as one of the six wickets to fall to Joey Palmer.
George Ulyett did the damage with the ball in the second innings, claiming 7-36 as England wrapped up victory by an innings and five runs.
Lord's has now played host to 130 Test matches with Graham Gooch scoring 2015 Test runs at the ground, including 333 against India in 1990, which is the record score on the ground.
Warren Bardsley holds the record for the most runs by an opposition player with 575. South African Graeme Smith holds the record score for a non-English player with 259.
England bowler James Anderson went wicketless in the recent thrashing against Australia but has the most wickets at the ground but it is Ian Botham who has the best figures there with 8-34.
Australian legend, Glenn McGrath, shared the most wickets (26) with Sir Richard Hadlee of New Zealand. McGrath has the best figures for an opposition player of 8-38, taken in the 1997 series.
