Another short or let me say shortest career I have noticed was of Subroto Banerjee. This guy was Right Arm Medium Fast, played just one Test Match that too against Australia in Sydney , 1991 picking up three wickets for 47, those of Mark Waugh, Mark Taylor and Geoff Marsh in first innnings. He somehow not sure why never ever played for India again.In this match also he was not given over during second innings. http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/63565.html

Tony Gray a tall fast bowler from WI who played 5 tests with 22 wickets at 17' date=' SR of 40 in between 86-87.[/quote'] yeah he's one, i read he angered the wrong man and that's why he never played again.

Freddie was a greater all rounder than Botham. If not for injuries, he would have been a superstar today. KP would still play for any team till now. Only due to ugly politics in English team he is retired. So yes premature careers.

Brad Hogg' date=' Mike Hussey (should have got his chance when he was 24-25).[/quote'] How t F did Hogg have a short career? He played 123 ODIs. Are you confusing him with Brad Hodge?
