Batsmen who picked just one wicket in more than a hundred Tests

Mark Boucher

Boucher dismissed Dwayne Bravo in 2005

Mark Boucher is one of the greatest wicketkeepers to have graced the game. Highly underrated as a cricketer, Boucher was an integral member of the South African team that rose to the pinnacle, across his 15-year long career that spanned between 1997 and 2012.

In what is a statistician's delight, Boucher ended his career with 1000 dismissals, as he affected 999 of them, courtesy of his glove work behind the stumps and picked up a solitary Test wicket.

In the 4th Test against Windies at St. John's, Antigua in 2005, South Africa declared their first innings at 588-7. Taking advantage of the placid pitch, the Windies batted for 235 overs as they piled up 747 runs on the board.

Chris Gayle was the wrecker in chief as he ended with a Man of the Match winning 317 to his name. In a bid to get the opposition all out, Proteas' skipper Graeme Smith used all his team members as all 11 South Africans ended up bowling at least one over.

Boucher, bowling his second over, managed to pick the last Windies wicket, that of Dwayne Bravo (107), putting an end to his team's torturous stay on the field.
