3 batting legends to score a pair on Test debut

#2 Graham Gooch

Graham Gooch

Graham Gooch is a name in Test cricket that needs no introduction. He is one of the best batsmen to ever play the game of cricket, which is evident from the fact that he scored over 8500 runs in his Test career, which lasted over a couple of decades.

Gooch was known for his unmatched class and incredible elegance. His ability to play shots on both sides of the wicket made him an even dangerous batsman. However, Gooch had a poor start to his international career, as he could not score even a single run in both the innings of his debut Test match against the arch rivals Australia in the year 1975 at Edgbaston.

Despite his embarrassing start in the international arena, Gooch got another chance to prove his capability as a batsman and he grabbed the opportunity with both hands to show the world, the enormous talent he possessed.
