    Well done, funny, that is a correct answer. I wasn't thinking of him being a bowler, I was thinking of a batsman and former England captain. (Geoffrey Boycott)

    His highest Test score was 246 not out in 1967, but he was dropped for the next match for slow scoring even though England won comfortably.

    Jason Gillespie was dropped from the Australian team after the Test Match in which he scored 201*.
