5-fers in consecutive tests by Indian pacers

[Trichromatic]

Pathan did against Bangladesh 2004 and Zim 2005.

 

Zak did it in 2002 in NZ
 

Kapil did it in 1979 Aus series and 1982 Pak series.

 

Bumrah did it now.

 

Who else are there?

Srinath did it twice.

 

In both innings vs Pakistan at Kolkata followed by another vs NZ at Mohali in 1999.

Then had 3 back-to-back 5-fers vs SL/SA at Galle/Bloemfontein/PE in 2001.

 

It still pisses me off that his 13-fer ended up in a losing cause
