S Sam
Australia v Pakistan - 3rd Test: Day 5

#4 Jason Gillespie

ODI - Australia v Zimbabwe

In the late 1990s and a large part of the early to mid-noughties, right arm fast bowler, Jason Gillespie, was one of the key members of the all-conquering Australian bowling attack of that era. First of all, he had the express pace that could trouble batsmen on any pitch, and in addition to that, he could extract seam movement and swing the ball as well.

For most of his career, he remained one of the world's premier fast bowlers as he shone for Australia in all formats of the game. He represented the team in Tests and ODIs primarily and played only one T20 international towards the end of his career, in which he ended up taking one wicket. Overall, he played 169 international games for Australia and picked up 402 wickets, at an average of 25.94 and strike rate of 48.20. Gillespie recorded an economy rate of 3.22.
