Jim Laker - 1956 Ashes test [4th test at Old Trafford] [1st innings he took 9-37 & 2nd innings he took ALL 10-53] [his figures of 19-90 are likely to stand the test of time, pardon the pun]

The man who escaped Jim Laker's clutches at Old Trafford in 1956 was the Australian opener Jim Burke, who was caught at slip by Colin Cowdrey off Tony Lock in the first innings.
