Be interesting to do the same for test 5-fors, reckon there must be similar number with one still on the county circuit.
OK, here goes ..

Broad
Sidebottom
Anderson
Flintoff
Panesar
Caddick
Jones
Tudor ?? (maybe at Trent bridge in 2001)
Did Swann get a fivefor in the last test?

Harmison
Hoggard
Gough's retired now isn't he? And Giles?

Cork

Don't think any of the last three took five-fers, but struggling to conjure any that do without recourse to Cricinfo!

Did Anthony Mcgrath & Butcher get five against Zim in 2003?

And is Richard Johnson still playing?

I don't think Silverwood or Plunkett did, although Tudor might have. I didn't think Croft did either, but I'm not sure.
And Ealham might have taken five in the 1st test against Aus in 1997. He certainly took a few to clean up the tail in their 2nd innings.

Tudor (? not convinced)

Don't think Saj or Plunkers ever managed one.

Tudor definitely did.
Ealham, McGrath & Butcher definitely didn't.

James Kirtley did, and we all forgot him.

I am sure there will be other periods in history when more Tset centurions were playing FC cricket.

I checked just on year - 1930 and found that in July 1930 there were at least 24 Test centurions still active.

  2. Ames, Leslie E G
  3. Bowley, Edward H
  4. Chapman, Arthur P F
  5. Duleepsinhji, Kumar S
  6. Gunn, George
  7. Hammond, Walter R
  8. Hearne, John W
  9. Hendren, Elias H
  10. Hobbs, John B
  11. Jardine, Douglas R
  12. Leyland, Maurice
  13. Mead, Charles P
  14. Russell, Charles A G
  15. Sandham, Andrew
  16. Sutcliffe, Herbert
  17. Tyldesley, George E
  18. Woolley, Frank E
  19. Wyatt, Robert E S
  20. Rhodes, Wilfred
