Peter Such, England (1993-1999)
Another brave bowler who failed to acquire batting skills. He tries like fury, steels himself to get into line against the fast bowlers and occasionally astounds us. In one Ashes Test, he took it upon himself to charge Merv Hughes, an odd thing for one of the most reliable and professional of pros to attempt. Like Tufnell, he would have played more Tests if he could bat – just a bit.
Finest hour The longest duck in English Test history against New Zealand at Old Trafford in 1999. He lasted 72 minutes.
Test record 11 Tests, 67 runs, average 6.09
