5 most genuine Test-only players of all time

Geoffrey Boycott

Our generation will remember him for his outstanding voice in the commentary box. However, as a player, he was perhaps even better—at least in Test cricket.

When his mind was set on staying in, there was almost no delivery that could get him out—such was his defensive technique. It was this ability that made it feel like he was born to play only this format of the game.

His stats are just as fine. In an era where West Indian pacers scared the living hell out of batsmen, he scored 8114 runs in 193 innings with an average of 47.72. He also has 22 hundreds and 42 half-centuries under his name.
