Vic Marks

Born 25 June 1955, Middle Chinnock, Somerset, Marks was educated at Blundell's School and Oxford University, for whom he played between 1975 and 1978 (alongside Imran Khan and Chris Tavaré, and opposite Peter Roebuck of Cambridge University, subsequently Marks' captain at Somerset).

Marks was the first England bowler of any description to achieve this feat (although seamers Darren Gough, Mark Ealham and Andrew Flintoff subsequently emulated it).
