  • Star man: The highlight of Andy Bichel’s career was his 7 for 20 against England in the 2003 CWC.

    Australian's bowling attack has always been known for the magic of leg-spinner Shane Warne, the tear-away pace of Brett Lee and the channel bowling from both Glenn McGrath or Jason Gillispie.

    But the hardworking bowler Andy Bichel made a name for himself in the 2003 ICC World Cup as he chipped in with useful contributions both with the bat and ball to help his team win crucial matches.Andy Bichel takes a catch to dismiss an opponent. He registered the second best bowling stats at the 2003 Cricket World Cup.

    The highlight of Bichel’s career was his 7 for 20 against England in the 2003 mega event which are registered as the second best bowling figures behind McGrath’s 7 for 15 against minnows Namibia in the same tournament.

    While a performance against Namibia is not striking, having figures of 7 for 20 against a side like England is an extraordinary achievement.
