The person who you are thinking of would be the umpire standing at the non strikers end. They stand about one meter or so inline with the stumps as to give them the best view of the batsmen's stance in relation to the stumps and the keeper. This gives them the best possible chance of making the correct decision when it comes to an lbw or caught behind appeal.
There are many other officials who oversee the game, with the other on field umpire being the square leg umpire (who, unsurprisingly, stands at square leg). The main umpire and the square leg umpire take turns in the relative positions.
There are also the people who hold the official of positions of third and fourth umpire, but they are not on the field of play.
They are called umpires. There are two on the pitch and one who reviews video footage.

The first four bowlers to take more than 500 wickets in Test Cricket were, chronologically, Courtney Walsh (17 March 2001), Shane Warne (8th March 2004), Muttiah Muralitharan (16 March 2004), and Glenn McGrath (July 21 2005). Anil Kumble (9 March 2006) was not far behind, and completes the five bowlers in the history of cricket to have taken 500 or more Test Wickets.

It means that the bowler dismissed 5 batsmen from the batting team by means of bowling them out or caught behind or caught in the field or leg before wicket. Taking 5 wickets in one match is a great achievement.

In cricket, backstopping is more commonly known as "wicket-keeping". It is where a player stands behind the wickets to collect any deliveries bowled by a bowler, that are missed by the batsman. Wicket Keepers can take catches, make stumpings (if the batsman strays outside his crease during a delivery) and are often instrumental in run outs.
