Yes even the obscure Paul Franks played an ODI but never amounted to much in real life. Very effective on early ICC editions though, from memory.

I think he got a series of bad injuries not long after this award and improved his batting when his bowling declined.

Yeah, and I think he was probably considered too slow after, but he was solid for Notts. Don't think any of them have been complete failures.

International Vice-Captain
The award dates back to 1950: Brian Taylor (1956), Colin Ingleby-Mackenzie (1958), John Whitehouse (1971), Dudley Owen-Thomas (1972), Andrew Kennedy (1975) and Ashley Metcalfe (1987) also never played any Tests (or ODIs).
