10 best players of all time from Queensland

#9 Andy Bichel

Bichel's all-round prowess turned him into a handy cricketer

Born in Laidley, former Australian all-rounder Andy Bichel was one of the most successful bowlers to have played for Queensland. The right-arm seamer ended up as the highest wicket-taker in the state's history with a tally of 463 wickets.

Bichel was a regular for Australia for a few years and was a key member of the World Cup-winning team of 2003. However, injuries eventually put a premature end to his career. He debuted for Queensland back in 1992 and continued to play for the side with distinction till 2007. Bichel's slippery style and ability to extract seam movement made him an extremely effective bowler. A first-class average of 26.51 is a testament to his skill-set as a seamer.
