Explanation

William Henry Cooper (who played for Australia in 1881-83) and Paul Sheahan (who played for Australia in 1967-73) are the only great-grandfather and great-grandson pair to have played Test cricket. This spans four generations of the same family. The other pairs listed are grandfather-grandson (like the Chappells and Amarnaths) or uncle-nephew (like Majid Khan and Imran Khan), not great-grandfather and great-grandson.
