6 instances over the last decade when more than 20 wickets fell in a single day of a Test

#5 New Zealand vs Zimbabwe, Napier, 2012

Chris Martin picked up 8 wickets in the match

In a rather unprecedented state of affairs, host New Zealand shot out Zimbabwe twice in one day. In this process, New Zealand won by an innings and 301 runs.

Chris Martin claimed 8 wickets for 31 in the day and was supported by Doug Bracewell.

Earlier New Zealand had scored 495 runs in their first innings and ended their essay on the third day. What followed was absolute mayhem as Zimbabwe were rolled over for 51 in their first innings and then for 143 runs in their second innings.

All in all, a total of 22 wickets fell in the day, and not very surprisingly, Zimbabwe were found well short of the target and were never quite in contention.
