When
England in England JC Laker 46 9.60 1956

Australia in England TM Alderman 42 (6T's) 21.26 1981
Australia in Australia RM Hogg 41 (6T's) 12.85 1978-79

 

Even playing in Six test Matches, Terry Alderman and Rodney Hogg of Australia couldn't match or beat Jim Lakers 46 wicket in 5 Tests in 1956. Terry Alderman in 1981 mesmerised the English batsmen with his outstanding bowling, and during the series seemed to have no answer to his bowling.
