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

Ian Bell

Ian Bell featured in 118 Test matches for England between 2004 and 2015 and scored 7727 runs at an average of 42.69. Unlike some of the other players on this list, Bell was not alien to bowling as he did bowl 18 overs across his Test career.

In the Faisalabad Test against Pakistan in 2005, he was called upon by captain Michael Vaughan to break a flourishing partnership between Mohammad Yousuf and Inzamam-ul-Haq and the medium pacer did just the same.

He took a great reflex catch to dismiss Yousuf off his own bowling to give the much-needed breakthrough, but that was his only Test wicket.

He though, did bowl 6 times in ODI's, the first of which was in his 4th ODI appearance for England. He returned with career-best figures of 3/9 in 3.4 overs, perhaps his best ever international bowling performance.
