Getting a century in cricket is an achievement. Similarly grabbing a 5-wicket haul is a fest to remember for bowlers. Rare are the players who achieve both. But rarest are the players who have a century, a five wicket haul, a stumping as well as catches as wicketkeeper and fielder both. Here's a list of players, who have achieved thus rare feat.
1) John Reid:

The tall lanky Kiwi was the first player in the history to achieve the feat. A fast bowling allrounder, he already had 6 centuries and 1 five-wicket haul to his name. But a knee injury ended his stint as a bowler. He began wicket keeping as a reserve keeper, and continued with the glovework till his final test, and in process he went on to have 1 stumping and 43 catches to his name.
2) Jimmy Adams:

The Jamaican is the second player to be in the elite list. A left handed batter, and a left arm orthodox spinner, he keeped the wickets if and when required. The former captain of West Indies has 6 centuries, 2 five wicket hauls, 5 stumpings and 116 catches to his name.
3) Glenn Phillips:

The latest addition to the list is another Kiwi in the form of Glenn Phillips. A wicketkeeper batsman, he bowls as a part timer if and when required. Already having 2 centuries, 2 stumpings and 68 catches to his name, he joined the elite list as he grabbed his maiden 5-wicket haul in the ongoing test match against Australia yesterday.
