In cricket, a five-wicket haul (also known as a "five–for" or "fifer")[1][2] occurs when a bowler takes five or more wickets in a single innings. This is regarded by critics as a notable achievement,[3] equivalent to a century from a batsman.[4]

Taking a five-wicket haul at Lord's earns the bowler a place on the Lord's honours boards.[5]
