Harry Alexander gained his nickname 'the bull' from his impressive right - arm Fast bowling. He toured India in 1935 - 1936 with Jack Ryder's Australian team, however he didn't play in any of the Tests. He played in his one and only Test match in the 5th Test match at Sydney, the infamous Bodyline series (1932 / 33). He was chosen as a counter measure to Harold Larwood, Australia's hopeful answer. Unfortunately, although incredibly fast, he never made his mark, taking only 1 wicket at a cost of 154 runs in the match.
