Timeline

1970

Michael Gwyl Bevan (born 8 May 1970) is a former Australian cricketer.

He is a left-handed batsman and a slow left arm wrist-spin bowler.

He has been credited for initiating the art of finishing matches.

For several years, he was considered the world's finest ODI batsman, and topped the ICC ODI batting rankings on numerous occasions.

He was the first Canberra-born player to represent Australia at international level.

He was known for his ability to run between the wickets, score at a quick rate, rotate the strike, and for his ability to play shots down the ground with ease.

1989

He was an Australian Cricket Academy scholarship holder in 1989.

He made his first-class debut in 1989-90 domestic season for New South Wales and scored a century in the first innings of the match.

1994

He made his ODI debut on 14 April 1994 against Sri Lanka in the 1994 Austral-Asia Cup atv Sharjah and was not required to bat as Australia chased down 155 comfortably with nine wickets to spare.

1995

By the 1995–96 season, he became a regular in the side.

He proved a reliable anchor at the bottom of the middle order, and he would often patiently guide Australia to victory following a rare top-order collapse – leading to him being nicknamed "The Finisher".

By the end of his ODI career, Bevan was known as the "Pyjama Picasso".

During his ODI career, he managed to hit just 21 sixes in 232 ODI matches.

He batted 45 times in successful ODI run chases for Australia and out of those 45 outings, he remained unbeaten at the crease on 25 occasions.

He was the second leading run scorer in the 1995/96 Benson & Hedges World Series only behind Mark Taylor with an aggregate of 389 runs in 10 innings at an impressive mind boggling average of 194.5, bolstered by eight not-outs out of the 10 innings striking at 83.65 throughout the tournament.

1996

One of his most famous "anchor" innings was in the New Year's Day One Day International at the Sydney Cricket Ground against the West Indies in 1996 during the Benson & Hedges World Series.

With the Australians at one stage 6/38 chasing 173, his unbeaten 150-minute 78 got the Australians over the line with a four on the last ball of the innings.

He featured in his first World Cup tournament during the 1996 Cricket World Cup and played a crucial role to help Australia to reach the final of the tournament by scoring 69 runs in the semi-final clash against the West Indies, a match which is highly remembered and known due to the dramatic collapse of the West Indies in a low scoring run chase of 208.

He also played an important cameo of unbeaten 36 off 49 balls in the 1996 World Cup final which propelled Australia to a decent total of 241/7 on the board.

However, his efforts went in vain as Sri Lanka chased down 242 to win their maiden World Cup title.

1998

He represented Australia at the 1998 Commonwealth Games, where cricket was included in the Commonwealth Games for the first time.

Bevan amassed 15,103 runs in List A cricket at an average of 57.86, which is the highest average by any player to have scored 10,000 runs in List A cricket.

He was named as a batsman in Australia's "greatest ever ODI team."

Michael Bevan's first senior club was Weston Creek Cricket Club in Canberra.

He was selected to the Australian squad for the 50 over cricket tournament at the 1998 Commonwealth Games where Australia became runners-up in the competition to South Africa.

1999

He played 232 One Day Internationals (ODIs) for Australia, and was a part of the 1999 and 2003 teams that won the Cricket World Cup.

He was a key member of the Australian side which lifted the 1999 Cricket World Cup.

2000

On 8 April 2000, he played arguably the best knock of his career where he steered the mammoth epic run chase of 321 by scoring an unbeaten 185 off just 132 deliveries in an unofficial ODI held in Dhaka which almost guaranteed Rest of the World XI for an unlikely victory against the Asia XI.

2002

In January 2002, he scored a crucial unbeaten 95 ball 102 in a match against New Zealand in a modest run chase of 246 at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground.

He arrived to the crease as he once again had to do the bulk of scoring runs after all familiar Aussie top-order collapse as Australia were reeling at 82/6 at one point to then reduced to 143/7.

His knock guaranteed Australia a thrilling two wicket win over New Zealand with three balls to spare.

2004

Although Bevan played most of his domestic career for the New South Wales Blues, he moved to the Tasmanian Tigers for the 2004–05 season, where he continued his successes up until his retirement in January 2007.

He also played for South Australia and in England for Yorkshire, Leicestershire and Sussex.

In the 2004/05 Sheffield Shield season, he scored a then-record 1464 runs in the season for Tasmania.

Despite this form, he missed Australian selection.

2019

Rest of the World XI at one stage were reeling at 7/196 in the 37th over and was staring at a big defeat before Bevan came to the rescue who smashed 19 fours and five sixes to provide a glimmer of hope.

He alongside Andy Caddick put on a 119 run partnership for the eighth wicket which led to a great recovery for the chasing side.

However, Rest of the World XI lost by just one run in the end despite the heroics of Bevan.

Caddick was involved in a brainfade moment in the critical juncture of the match as he was run out on the penultimate delivery effectively denying Rest of the World XI a famous win given the circumstances on how the game had panned out.

However, his knock of 185 not out could not be realised as Bevan's highest ODI or even List A score due to the fact that the match did not have any status as it was deemed as an unofficial ODI meaning the match does not even count as a List A match.
