5 players you didn't know have taken Test wickets

#4. Shivnarine Chanderpaul

Chanderpaul knew a thing or two about bowling

The West Indian batting maestro, Shivnarine Chandeperaul spent most of his time at the crease during his Test career. He loved batting for long durations and had unparalleled patience. One of the finest batsmen of the modern era, Chanderpaul was classic and most famous for his unorthodox batting stance.

Such are his batting statistics that his bowling exploits are almost forgotten. In his two decades long Test career, he claimed nine Test wickets. The famed Graham Thorpe was Chanderpaul's first Test victim and interestingly the West Indian bowled frequently during the initial phase of his career.

During his first ten Test innings, he delivered 88 overs while in his remaining 270 innings he bowled mere 202 overs. He concentrated mostly on his batting and the West Indies' team at that phase had plenty of bowling options so his bowling skills were left unexploited.

However, he does have nine Test wickets to his name and enjoyed an economy rate of just over 3 during his Test career.
