Australia - Dark Horse
Age 36 ODI debut: v Zimbabwe, August 1996
The closest Australia have to a specialist spinner in their ODI squad, Brad Hogg offers accurate chinamen as well as useful runs in the middle order.
He has been part of Australia's set-up for more than a decade and was given his chance in the 2003 World Cup because of the suspension of Shane Warne.
Hogg truly arrived on the world stage with a stupendous flipper to Zimbabwe's Andy Flower four years ago and took 13 wickets in the tournament. He is also a fine fielder.
