Useless info maybe but I've just been looking up cricket records on Wikipedia. A few names (all very good batsmen) I picked out were.

Adam Gilcrist and Virender Sehwag. They both achieved a king pair (out first ball in both innings) in test cricket.

Mark Waugh managed a pair (out both innings without scoring) in consecutive tests.

Of course the best batsman ever (Don Bradman) ended his test career with a duck but his retirement was planned.
