That's Q12 gone.

Let me summarize:

We're looking for a cricketer from the Northern Hemisphere but not England or Windies or any part of the subcontinent. Not so long ago, this cricketer played a match in Africa and achieved something remarkable. So remarkable, in fact, that only six others have ever equalled it, while only one has done better. Something about this cricketer, however, makes his achievement unique.

The uniqe thing, of course, is that he is not from any of the Test playing nations.

The achievement is related to batting but not a batting record. It is related to dismissals but mode of dismissal and everything else directly related to the dismissals are irrelevant

Who is this cricketer and what did he do?

Second hint: Look left
