5 disastrous performances from bowlers which ended their international careers

3) Bryce McGain against South Africa

Bryce Mcgain played only one Test for Australia

Just a single Test and that was it for the Australian leg-spinner, who was quite a name to reckon with in the domestic circuit.

Making his Test debut at 36, Bryce McGain became Australia's oldest Test debutant since Bob Holland and the fans were eager to see him wearing the baggy green.

However, the leggie struggled to find the right length and was severely treated as he finished with match figures of 0 for 149. He also earned the dubious distinction of the second worst economy rate in an innings-8.27. Bangladesh’s Shahadat Hossain tops this ill-famed list with an economy of 8.41 which he conceded against England in Lord’s in 2005.

Australia lost that Test by an innings and 20 runs and McGain never played for the side thereafter.
