10 Indian cricketers who played just one game and faded away

3. Iqbal Siddiqui

Being well-known as a very solid all-rounder during his playing days, Iqbal Siddiqui had unfortunately played only a single Test match for India back in the year 2001. Playing against England at Mohali, the all-rounder who was known to bowl at a considerable pace along with his strong ability to move the ball both off the track and in the air had famously scalped Graeme Thorpe as his debut wicket.

Further, while in the first innings Iqbal did bat at number 10 and scored 24 runs, the cricketer was then made to open in the second innings when India merely needed 5 runs to win the Test match. Unfortunately, after that game, Siddiqui never further managed to play for India again.

Nevertheless, with Iqbal Siddiqui also being someone who had made his first-class debut way back in 1993-94 along with having the experience of playing some county games in India, it is said that the all-rounder definitely could have represented India in lot many games than in a one-off Test match. Overall, in terms of his first-class record, Iqbal Siddiqui has played a total of 90 matches and has scalped a tally of 315 wickets.
