4 Great players who played fewer than 25 Tests

#4 Andy Bichel

Andy Bichel played a vital role for Australia in their 2003 World Cup campaign

Much like Brad Hodge, Andy Bichel played in the wrong era as his peak days coincided with the country's golden age of domination with extreme competition for spots. Bichel was a partnership breaker in the middle overs and more than a decent batsman to have lower down the order.

Bichel managed to play only 19 Tests for Australia that included 58 scalps. While he couldn’t hold on to his place in the whites, he was a valuable member of the One-day setup. He played a crucial role in Australia’s 2003 World Cup campaign, a tournament which even included a 7 for 20 against England. It was a superb display of fast bowling before sharing a 73 run partnership with Bevan to carry Australia home.
