We have the correct answer.
Craig McDermott was Muttiah Muralitharan's 1st wicket in test cricket and Pragyan Ojha his final and 800th test wicket, taken with his final ball in test cricket.

Independence, Patriarch, Liberty, Irresistible and Eminence are all names of what?
Missiles?
Edit: I was probably thinking of Patriot missiles, so I'll say US warships.

That's a good try - but sorry no. The answer is something very abstract (neither animal, vegetable nor mineral).

Chapters in a book?

No, sorry - none of those.
Other examples from the same "category" as Independence, Patriarch, Liberty, Irresistible and Eminence are Rajah, Xanadu, Fandango, Bole and Dandelion.

Not those either.
The answer might be found in the Tate Gallery - or else in Granny's old knitting patterns!!

That's what I'm in - haha!! Ever heard of IG Farben (1925-1952)? They, and their successors (BASF. Hoechst & Bayer) produced lots of these!

Yes, you are quite correct. They all produced dyestuffs - not to mention other nasty substances!
I'm going to wrap this one up now. The answer I was looking for is COLOURS.
Independence, Patriarch, Liberty, Irresistible, Eminence, Rajah, Xanadu, Fandango, Bole and Dandelion are all names of colours.
