Explanation

Jim Laker (England) is the other bowler to take 10 wickets in a Test innings, achieving this feat against Australia at Old Trafford in 1956. Anil Kumble (India) took 10 wickets for 74 runs against Pakistan in 1999. Jack Hobbs and Len Hutton were famous batsmen, not bowlers. Dennis Lillee (misspelled as Lilley in option) was a great fast bowler but never took 10 wickets in an innings.
