Ben Stokes celebrated his 100th Test cap during the India series and Jonny Bairstow is set to do the same in the final match of the series. But Surrey has another most-capped players.
133 by Alec Stewart
The sixth Englishman and first Surrey player to reach three figures, Alec Stewart's 133 was an England record until it was surpassed by Jimmy Anderson, Stuart Broad, Alastair Cook, and Joe Root. It was quite an achievement considering he made his debut at the age of 27.
Stewart's versatility meant that he played 82 matches as a wicketkeeper-batsman and 51 in his favourite role as a top-order specialist. It was in the latter role that he scored two centuries against the West Indies in Barbados in 1994, two of 15 tons for his country. The faster they came, the happier he was - not surprising for a player who spent so many winters on the fast pitches of Perth.
Stewart scored 8,463 Test runs at 39 before retiring in 2003, also played 170 ODIs, was captain in 1998-99 and now, as Surrey's director of cricket, prides himself on producing players for international cricket as well as winning trophies for Surrey.
104 by Kevin Pietersen
Having established himself as one of the world's leading players when he joined Surrey in 2011 after spells with Nottinghamshire and Hampshire, Kevin Pietersen's appearances for his third county have been sporadic. He scored 533 runs at 106 as England whitewashed India that summer, but a stormy relationship with England's coaches and captains was beginning to take its toll.
Pietersen was dropped after the 2013-14 Ashes tour, never to return. His raw numbers, 8,181 runs at 47, place him firmly in the top tier - and it's unlikely that anyone who witnessed the coruscating 158 at The Oval that sealed England's 2005 Ashes victory will ever forget it.
100 by Graham Thorpe
For much of Graham Thorpe's dozen years in international cricket, England was often up against him - but never beaten until he was out. A compact left-hander from Farnham, Thorpe could play either the Cavalier or the Roundhead, tailoring an innings to the often difficult circumstances.
In his maiden Test, against Australia at Trent Bridge, Thorpe became the first Englishman in 20 years to score a century against an all-out attack that included Glenn McGrath and Shane Warne. He was equally at home against pace and spin and backed it up with a reliable catch.
His 6,744 Test runs came at an average of 44 and included 16 centuries, none more stirring than the 124 he hit against South Africa at The Oval in 2003 after a year out of the side. That extended a career that also included 82 ODIs, with his 100th Test coming against Bangladesh in 2005. By then, a nagging back injury was increasingly hampering him, forcing him to retire at the end of that season and become a successful coach.
90 by Bob Willis
Bob Willis was born in Sunderland. He grew up in Surrey and played his early cricket in the county.
After making a strong impression in early matches for Surrey in 1969-70, he was called up for England's 1970-71 Ashes tour as a replacement for Alan Ward on the recommendation of John Edrich. Although raw, Willis took 16 wickets in four matches, with 12 of those wickets providing vital support to John Snow's spearhead as the urn was retrieved.
Back home, he found himself battling for a place with Robin Jackman as Surrey won the County Championship under Micky Stewart, and this - along with a dispute over wages - persuaded him to move to Warwickshire.
Willis went on to become one of England's finest modern fast bowlers, despite persistent knee problems. His 8-43 in a miraculous win at Headingley in 1981 was a highlight of his prolific career. He took 325 wickets in 90 Tests and captained his country for two years before becoming a popular pundit on Sky Sports.
82 by Ken Barrington
Amid the batting of Dexter, Cowdrey, and Graveney, the more prosaic style of Ken Barrington was England's bedrock in the 1960s. He had the shots to match them all but, having lost his Test place in 1955, vowed when he regained it four years later that it would be forever.
Barrington became the man England could rely on in all circumstances and conditions, only occasionally showing glimpses of the cavalier. He scored 6,806 runs at 58.67, a record few can match, but it was not always appreciated by selectors or spectators, and he was once dropped for slow scoring.
After a first heart attack ended his career at the age of 37, he became a pundit, selector, and coach before a second heart attack proved fatal on England's tour of the West Indies in 1981. His contribution to Surrey and English cricket is commemorated by the Ken Barrington Centre at the Kia Oval.
77 by John Edrich
While the glamour boys got all the glory, it was John Edrich who was to stand up to the quicks. His time in Test cricket - 1963-76 - came at a time when there were plenty of fast bowlers, but few decent protective gear, and Edrich was knocked out by South Africa's Peter Pollock in 1965 and had his ribs broken by Australia's Dennis Lillee in 1974-75.
He relied on a conservative range of shots and a simple view of the game, reckoning he would be fine until bowlers could deliver more than one ball at a time. It served him well, scoring 5,138 Test runs at 43 out of 39,790 first-class runs. Edrich also captained England in a Test, deputising for Mike Denness in Sydney in 1974-75. His broken ribs added to the pain of Australia's Ashes recovery.
71 by Mark Butcher
Coming from a family of five first-class players, Mark Butcher quickly settled into Test cricket, scoring centuries against strong South African and Australian batting in 1998. The opener was even drafted in as an emergency captain for a Test against New Zealand the following year, but was dropped for the following match when his form slumped.
When Butcher regained his place in 2001, he capped it by playing the innings of his life - perhaps anyone's life - bowling out the all-conquering Australians for 173 at Headingley to earn England an unlikely victory. Butcher remained a fixture in the top order until he suffered a hand injury on the 2004-05 tour of South Africa.
Any lingering hopes of a return to international cricket - to build on his 4,288 runs at 34 - were dashed by a career-ending knee injury in 2009, depriving Surrey of an excellent captain and a fine player. He was not lost to the game, however, and has become an accomplished commentator on the global game.
66 by Peter May
Few young players have fulfilled their promise as thoroughly as Peter May. Only two years of national service delayed his Test debut until he was 21 - he made 138 against South Africa at Headingley - and there would be few missteps on his way to first-class cricket.
May was the outstanding batsman in Surrey's run of seven Championship titles from 1952-58, when international call-ups were permitted, and became England captain in 1955, two years before succeeding Stuart Surridge as Surrey captain. May would go on to captain England for a record 41 Tests, winning 20 of them, but the latter stages of his tenure and career were marred by ill-health.
May played his final Test at the age of 31 and retired from first-class cricket a year later, much to the regret of those who remembered his incomparable on-drive and command at the crease. A haul of 4,537 runs at 46 underlines why.
61 by Jack Hobbs
The most prolific run-scorer in the history of cricket, Jack Hobbs' Test career spanned 22 years and heaven knows how many more he would have scored had he not lost four years to the First World War.
Dubbed "The Master", he scored 61,237 first-class runs and of his 199 centuries, half came after the age of 40. Test cricket brought out the best in Hobbs as he averaged 56 - up from 50 - and his superb footwork ensured he had an answer for the best bowlers.
Humility and generosity, even to the extent of giving away his wicket after a big score to bowlers he felt deserved it, were hallmarks of a man whose achievements are celebrated by the Hobbs Gates, which mark the main entrance to the Kia Oval.
52 by Mark Ramprakash
The bulk of Mark Ramprakash's Test career was spent with Middlesex, but a typically productive start to the 2001 season, his first with Surrey, earned him a recall.
Ramprakash capped it off with a fighting 133 at The Oval, his second and last Test century, but lost his place after the following winter's tours of India and New Zealand.
If a Test average of 27 marked him out as an underachiever, it rose to 42 against Australia - the best side in the world at the time. And it meant that Surrey would benefit from the rich autumn of his career, which peaked when he scored 2,000 first-class runs in both the 2006 and 2007 campaigns. He became the 25th - and probably the last - player to pass 100 first-class centuries, finishing with 114.
51 by Sir Alec Bedser
It's a good thing Alec Bedser was built so sturdily because he had to carry the England attack for almost a decade after the Second World War. The war meant that the budding careers of both Alec and his twin Eric - after just two years on the staff - were put on hold for another seven seasons.
But when cricket resumed in 1946, Bedser was immediately selected by England, who were impressed by his relentless accuracy at a medium pace. His stock ball, bowled to right-handers, was later joined by a ripping leg-cutter. He took 11 wickets in his first two Tests and established himself as a starter, peaking with 39 wickets in five matches as England regained the Ashes in 1953, out of a total of 236.
After his playing days were over, he spent 23 years as an England selector, chairing the panel from 1969-81. He was knighted in 1996.
49 by Tony Lock
Just 17 when he made his first appearance for Surrey in 1946, Tony Lock's England debut came four years later. He would form a formidable partnership with Jim Laker for both county and country, not least in winning back the Ashes in 1953.
Lock's aggressive left-arm spin was matched by his gripping catching close to the wicket. Most effective in English conditions, Lock's action was controversial on several occasions, but he successfully reformed it in the latter stages of his career.
After leaving Surrey in 1963, Lock enjoyed fruitful spells as captain of Western Australia and Leicestershire and made an unlikely England comeback for two Tests in the Caribbean in 1968. He took 174 Test wickets at 25.
46 by Jim Laker
Has the world ever seen a better off-spinner? England's selectors took a long time to make up their minds, partly because Bradman's Australians gave Jim Laker a mauling early in his Test career.
Surrey's seven successive County Championship titles from 1952-58 owed much to the spin partnership of Laker and Lock, who destroyed teams up and down the country, not just at The Oval, where they were lethal. It was there that they ran through the Australians to regain the Ashes in 1953 and Laker took his ultimate revenge three years later at Old Trafford, taking 19-90, the best figures in Test history.
A son of Yorkshire, Laker's vicious spin - no wonder he suffered from an arthritic finger - was matched by superb control. His 193 wickets cost just 21 each, and he went on to become the accomplished television pundit for the BBC, forming a fine partnership with Richie Benaud, and chairman of Surrey's cricket committee.
Ollie Pope 42 not out
Had it not been for the misfortune of three dislocated shoulders, Ollie Pope would surely be well past his half-century of Test appearances.
If being selected against India in 2018 as a 20-year-old with just 15 first-class appearances was asking a lot, Pope has effectively become an automatic choice - when fit - to the extent that he is now Ben Stokes' vice-captain. Injury has interrupted his international development and there have been lulls, but he has always bounced back.
A wicket-keeper by trade, Pope has performed admirably for both England and Surrey when Ben Foakes has been unavailable, while also proving a fine operator at short leg.
35 by Tom Hayward
Success against the best team in the world - usually Australia - has always been regarded as a mark of class. Given that Tom Hayward's 35 appearances included 20 Tests against Australia, it was only fitting that he scored 1,999 runs at the age of 34 in an era when the pitches offered many challenges.
Although he was born and died in Cambridge, Hayward's extensive cricket-playing family had firm roots in Mitcham. The second man after WG Grace to score 100 first-class centuries, Hayward scored 104 but was 43 when the First World War broke out and did not return when cricket resumed. An early mentor to his opening partner Jack Hobbs, he went on to serve Surrey and England.
