5 international players who never played the Champions Trophy

#3 Brad Hodge

Australia’s strong middle order had no place for Hodge

Victoria’s highest ever run-scorer in the Sheffield Shield (10,474 runs), Brad Hodge has never played the Champions Trophy. In 223 first-class matches, Hodge has scored 17,084 runs at an average of 48.81.

He has been one of the most prolific players for Australia in the domestic circuit. However, his transition to international cricket was not smooth because he was unlucky.

Australia had a brilliant middle order and one which was hard to break through. Hodge played 25 ODIs and 15 T20Is, scoring 575 and 183 runs respectively but Champions Trophy always remained a distant dream for him.
