Sunil Gavaskar was dismissed five times by Imran Khan in Tests in which they were both captain. This equals the record for a pair: England's Ted Dexter fell to Richie Benaud five times, all during the 1962-63 Ashes in Australia. Gavaskar was also dismissed twice by Bob Willis during India's series in England in 1982, making a total of seven. But the leader in this regard is Clive Lloyd, who was dismissed by his opposite number on no fewer than nine occasions in Tests - four times by Kapil Dev, twice by Bishan Bedi and Tony Greig, and once by Ian Botham.
This was a famous pair of South African brothers - fast bowler Peter Pollock and the superb left-hand batsman Graeme Pollock. Peter, whose son Shaun Pollock also had a glittering Test career, explained the derivation of the names to the Gulf News a few years ago: "I was playing for Eastern Province, and was 17 years old. My voice hadn't broken. I appealed, and it sounded like a dog barking. Atholl McKinnon named me! When my brother came along, I became Big Dog and he was the Little Dog."
West Indies' Faoud Bacchus hit his own wicket after making 250 - his only Test century - against India in Kanpur in 1979-80. It's actually the second-highest score to end this way: the Australian opener Bill Ponsford hit his own wicket after making 266 against England at The Oval in 1934, in what turned out to be his final Test. There have been 12 other Test scores of over 100 that ended with a hit-wicket dismissal, including another one by Ponsford, in his previous innings - 181 against England at Headingley in 1934.
Well clear here is a man who rarely opened in Tests, but adapted beautifully to the role in one-dayers: Sachin Tendulkar made 15,310 runs from the top of the order in ODIs. Sanath Jayasuriya comes next with 12,740, while Chris Gayle has 10,179. Adam Gilchrist and Sourav Ganguly also made more than 9000 runs while opening. For the full list, click here.
If you mean the most ducks in an innings, the Test record is six, which has happened five times now, most recently when five New Zealanders failed to score against Pakistan in Dubai in 2018-19. The record for an ODI innings is also six, and has also happened five times, most recently by Pakistan v Sri Lanka in Colombo in June 2012.
