Stats: Comparing four of the greatest all-rounders of yesteryear

#4 Hundreds and five-wicket hauls

Imran Khan picked up 23 five-wicket hauls

A century and five-wicket haul are personal milestones for batsmen and bowlers respectively in Tests.

	100’s	Century frequency (avg)	Five-wicket hauls	Five-wicket hauls frequency (avg)
Imran Khan	6	21	23	6.17
Richard Hadlee	2	67	36	4.16
Kapil Dev	8	23	23	9.86
Ian Botham	14	11.5	27	6.22

Hadlee was superb with the ball and he has the most number of five-wicket hauls in this list. Getting a five-wicket haul every 4.16 innings is exceptional and that is why the former Kiwi bowler is rated among the best bowlers of all-time. Although he was also handy with the bat, he was not known for scoring big hundreds.

Hadlee was the best bowler of the four in this list

Imran Khan and Kapil Dev have good records but Ian Botham is top of the batting charts, he scored a hundred every 11.5 innings and picking up a five-wicket haul every 6.22 innings.
