Hooker who shared the 10th wicket record partnership with Kippax of 307 runs ALSO took four wickets in four balls all without the help of a fielder. the first three clean bowled and the fourth caught and bowled.

If SJS does not post question, I hope we can take up this question.

Question
Probably one of the first cricketer's of his ethnic origin to play Test Cricket, he and his bowling partner must have been a scary proposition for other school cricket Teams that played against them!!

Who is he ? Who is the bowling partner (from his school cricket Team)?
