Two Australians and an Englishmen share this all time 'record'. Who are they and what's the 'record'?

  1. Is it a Test record?.....Yes
  2. Are the record holders umpires?.....NO
  3. Did any of these individuals attain this record before 1940?......YES
  4. Did they all do it before 1940?......Yes
  5. does this mean that the holders would not be inclined to mention the achievement on their cricketing CV? .... The answer, I am afraid is Yes and No :)
  6. Did they set the record well apart from each other (like 10-12 years between the record) ?......NO
  7. Is it a batting record ?........NO
  8. Is it a bowling record?.....Yes
  9. Did they all do this in the same match?.......Yes
  10. Is it rather a humourous incident which ended up being a record ?.....NO
  11. Was it regarding extras?......NO

Hint No. 1 : When I said the answer was Yes and No in response to Q5, I meant the Australians may mention it in their CV but the Englishman probably wouldn't :)

Does it relate to the taking of wickets? ...... Yes, you could say that.

Bowling unchanged throughout the match?.....NO (you are moving away)

Is it a record because three of them did this thing in the same match? Thats tricky to answer with a yes or no
