Bryce Edward McGain (born 25 March 1972) is an Australian former cricketer who played a single Test match for the Australia national cricket team, as well as domestically for Victoria. McGain made his first-class debut in 2002 against New South Wales at the Sydney Cricket Ground. However, due to other Victorian spinners—Shane Warne and Cameron White—he was unable to hold down a place in the side. He worked in the IT section of a bank and played Victorian Premier Cricket for Prahran Cricket Club before being called up to the Victorian side again.

McGain became a regular for Victoria in the 2007 season and took 38 wickets at 34.78.[1] This led spin mentor Terry Jenner to suggest that McGain could be selected in the Australian Test team for the 2007–08 home series against India.[2] Although this predicted selection did not happen, McGain was later selected for the 2008–09 four-Test tour of India after playing for Australia A in India in September 2008. During this tour, he played in a 2-day tour match against Rajasthan Cricket Association XI, but he did not get to bat or bowl.[3] He had to return home due to a shoulder injury after having only played in this one tour match.[4][5]

McGain made his Test debut at the age of 36 at Newlands in Cape Town in the third Test against South Africa in March 2009.[6] In his Test debut he conceded 0/149 from 18 overs, the worst figures returned by an Australian in a Test match.[7] The South African batsmen targeted him for attack and hit many sixes from his bowling. He made two in the first innings and was run out for a duck in the second.

Bryce was also a local Australian Rules footballer, playing at the Silvan Football Club in the YVMDFL between 1996 and 2001, playing 82 games and kicking 93 goals. A midfielder, Bryce won three club senior Best & Fairest's in 1997, 1999 and 2000. Along with the YVMDFL 2000 Senior League Best & Fairest award. Bryce was also inducted into Silvan's "Team of Century" in 2002.
