Bond and Dillon who later opened the bowling for their countries did not do so on debut and wadekar who always played as a batsman, opened the Indian bowling on his debut ??

Guessing again.

Maurice Allom is correct. The record is getting 4 wickets in 5 balls. He took a hat trick and another wicket off the last ball. In fact he could've got 5 wickets of 6 balls had a close LBW off the very first ball been given, a leg bye was taken off it, following which he took the hat trick , and a 4th wicket off the last ball of the over.

His record is unparallelled because of those who took 4 wickets in 5 balls in Test history (Wasim Akram and Chris Old being the others) he is the only debutant to do so.

The unparallelled nature of the Test is that England was playing a Test simultaneously in the West Indies on the same days of this Test.

is it directly related to the three particular players in question??


(by this i mean the answer could be yes, or if it could have been related to particular feats achieved by other's in their own debut tests....??)

You are quite correct. I was slightly off the Mark when I said it was unparalleled, because the other Test in the series was also being played at the same time as a Test was being played in the West Indies by another England Test Team.

I have also realised I made a mistake regarding ALLOM's wickets. Infact he missed an LBW first ball, wicket the next ball , then the third was missed and 4th, 5th and 6th got wickets. So had the LBW shout off the first ball been given he would have still only ended up with , WW0WWW instead of LB,W0WWW that actually resulted.

Wasim Akram had a chance to get WWWWW0 instead of WW0WW0 that he actually got, had the missed chance of the third ball been taken .(As has previously been mentioned by me) :D

Any way It doesn't really matter now. Apologies for my previous mistake. :)
