Four Australian bowlers took 20 wickets in the 2006-07 Ashes, in which England were brutally whitewashed 5-0 by an Australian side stung by losing the urn in 2005 Ashes - was the on...ly time four bowlers from the same side have taken 20 or more wickets in the same five-Test series. The four Australian bowlers included Glenn McGrath (21), Shane Warne (23) and Stuart Clark (26) Brett Lee (20), Andrew Symonds (two) was the only other Australian bowler to take a wicket. Amazingly it did happen in one six-Test series, although. In England in 1995, Kenny Benjamin (23), Curtly Ambrose (21), Ian Bishop (27) and Courtney Walsh (26) all took more than 20 wickets, however Curtly Ambrose and Kenny Benjamin both missed one of the six matches). The other West Indies bowler Carl Hooper (3) and Ottis Gibson (2) also took wickets in that series.
