In this quiz, you have to list every bowler with 50 Test wickets in a single country away from home.
Taking 50 Test wickets is a rare feat. Doing it away from home is reasonably difficult. Achieving it in a single overseas nation is truly astonishing – something that has eluded some of the greatest bowlers of all time (though scheduling did play a part in this).

The list is dominated by bowlers, especially Australians, who played in the Ashes, though some West Indian fast-bowling superstars feature quite high on the list as well. For about a decade, Pakistan “hosted” Test cricket in the UAE: two excellent spinners from that era appear in this list as well.
