In cricket, a five-wicket haul (also known as a "five-for" or "fifer")[1][2] refers to a bowler taking five or more wickets in a single innings. This is regarded as a notable achievement.[3]

The first bowler to take a five-wicket haul in a Test match at Carisbrook was Sonny Ramadhin, who took 6/23 in 1956 for West Indies against host New Zealand.[4] Bowling figures of 5/52 by Intikhab Alam of Pakistan recorded as the best bowling figures to date in Tests at Caribrook. There have been a total of 14 five-wicket hauls in Test matches at the ground.

Since its first ODI on 30 March 1974 by New Zealand against Australia, then in 21 ODIs, there have been a total of only 2 five-wicket hauls taken at the ground during ODIs. The first of these was achieved by Vivian Richards who took 5/41 for West Indies against New Zealand in 1987.[5]
