5 legendary players who didn't play enough Test cricket

#4 Michael Bevan

Michael Bevan was class personified with his off-side play

We can draw many parallels between the careers of Klusener and Michael Bevan. Both left-handers were incredible middle-order batsmen and handy bowlers, as well as electric in the field. Both were accomplished finishers with a cool head on their shoulders.

Unfortunately, Bevan, much like Klusener, was unsuccessful in Test cricket despite a superb debut. After three half-centuries in his debut series, Bevan went on to play only 18 Tests, in sharp contrast to the 6,912 runs he scored in 232 ODIs at an average of 53.58.

The left-arm leg-spinner also picked up 29 wickets in Tests, even recording match figures of 10/113 once. However, the 1999 and 2003 World Cup victorious campaigns he was a part of remain the highlight of his career.

Bevan has also coached many franchises since he retired from the sport in 2007.

#3 Yuvraj Singh

Yuvraj Singh scored only 3 hundreds in Test cricket

Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh is one of the greatest No. 4 batsmen the country has ever seen in ODIs, but had a rather forgettable Test career. In 40 games, Yuvraj scored only 1,900 runs at an average of 33.9, with only 3 hundreds to his name. His bowling was also not built on wicket-taking, and he played mostly as a specialist batsman for India.

With some technical issues plaguing the elegant southpaw throughout his career, he was often all at sea overseas, and sometimes even on the rank turners at home. Yuvraj could never make his mark on the longest format of the game, much unlike his ODI career over the course of which he scored 8,701 runs and won the Man of the Tournament award in the 2011 World Cup.

The former Kings XI Punjab captain also had a memorable T20 career, with the highlight being the 6 sixes he hit off Stuart Broad in a single over, who is incidentally England's second-highest wicket-taker in Test cricket.
