Gilchrist ne apna antarashtriya career ODIs mein South Africa ke khilaf ek wicket-keeper ke roop mein 1996 mein shuru kiya. Tendulkar ki tarah, unhone order mein neeche batting karna shuru kiya. Unhone wahan acchi pradarshn kiya lekin jaldi hi unhe innings kholne bheja gaya kyunki pinch-hitters (ballebaaz jo fielding restrictions ka fayda uthate hain) ki zaroorat thi.
