“Universally Challenged” Draft Idea

Another New Zealander for me, slow left armer David O'Sullivan - 11 Tests and 18 wickets at 68.00 to show for them

Ian Craig. Not only slated to be the next Bradman(like many early 50s Aussie bats who had a tiny bit of FC success) he was given the Australian test captaincy at 22 bloody years old.

However he averaged 19 from his 11 tests batting mainly at 4. I guess an early, mini version of Brearley(complete with winning captaincy record) except the Bradman comparisons really make his failure to score runs extra embarrassing.

SillyCowCorner1 times out.

My next pick is Louis Stricker, who played 13 tests for South Africa between 1910 and 1912, scoring 344 runs @ 14.33 with no fifties.

Eyes not spreadsheets
Every incompetent set of bowlers needs an incompetent keeper so I pick Ken James.

52 runs @ 4.72 plus only 16 dismissals in 11 matches is truly a great effort.
