In cricket, a five-wicket haul (also known as a "five-for" or "fifer") refers to a bowler taking five or more wickets in a single innings. This is regarded as a notable achievement. [4] This article details the five-wicket hauls taken on the ground in official Test and One Day International matches. [lower-alpha 2]

The first bowler to take a five-wicket haul in a Test match on the ground was Ghulam Ahmed who took five wickets for the cost of 109 runs (5/109) for India against Pakistan in the ground's first Text match in 1955. The best innings bowling figures in Test cricket on the ground are the seven wickets for 77 runs (7/77) taken by Pakistan's Danish Kaneria against Bangladesh in 2002. A total of 31 Test match five-wicket hauls were taken on the ground. [2]

The ground was first used for One Day International (ODI) cricket in 1988 when it hosted matches in the 1988 Asia Cup competition. The first five-wicket haul on the ground in an ODI was taken by India's Arshad Ayub during this completion; Ayub took 5/25 against Pakistan. A total of six five-wicket hauls were taken in ODIs on the ground, with the best ODI bowling figures of 6/35 taken by Pakistan's Abdul Razzaq in 2002 against Bangladesh. [2]
