I'm thinking of something very interesting that has happened once in the 1880s, once in the 1980s, and once in the last 5 years. The chances are that it won't happen any time soon.

2. burkey_1988 - Is it a stat? YES
3. bookie - Is it to do with batting? NO
4. burkey_1988 - is it to do with bowling? YES
5. bookie - does it involve at least three different nations? YES
6. bookie - Won after following on? NO
7. burkey_1988 - is it a team bowling stat? YES
8. tommo_365 - is it a good bowling stat? NO
9. burkey_1988 - four seven-ball overs and one 5 ball over in the match? NO

CLUE #1 - England, Australia and India are the teams to have done this particular thing
CLUE #2 - In the last occurance of this, Ajay Ratra kept for most of the match
CLUE #3 - In all of the matches there was a keeper change.

It's 11 bowlers.
About that match:
# This is the first occurrence of when the keepers from both sides have scored a 100
# This is the third occasion on which all eleven players have bowled in an innings, the others being England v Australia at The Oval 1884 and Australia v Pakistan at Faisalabad 1979/80
# R Dravid kept wicket while Ratra bowled

The answer, as you have noticed, has been worked out by membersstand, as 11 bowlers bowled in all three matches
