Ten players who played their first and last Test against the same team

#5 Steve Waugh (Australia)

Steve Waugh played a match-saving knock for Australia in his final Test match at Sydney

One of the most respected players in the history of the game, Steve Waugh was a true embodiment of grit and determination, whose ruthless captaincy took Australia to the height of their glory in the early 2000s.

Debuting against India at Melbourne in 1985, Waugh made a slow start to his Test career and was even dropped from the squad at one point in favour of his twin brother Mark, before making a strong comeback and emerge as one the nation's greatest ever player.

Waugh played 168 Tests, scoring 10927 runs including 32 centuries and is only of three Australian cricketers along with Allan Border and Ricky Ponting with more than 10000 runs in the five-day format.

Waugh also skipper Australia to victory in the 1999 ODI World Cup and led his side to 15 consecutive Test wins before being stopped by the Sourav Ganguly-led Indian side in 2001.

Ganguly was the opposition skipper the last time Waugh played for Australia as well in the Sydney Test of the 2003/04 season when the latter led from the front with a match-saving knock of 80 in his final inning to help Australia avoid a series defeat.
