    His aggressive captaincy and superb man-management skills were so brilliant that experts and former players alike went on to say that he was the greatest captain Australia never had. The man himself admitted in his autobiography that not captaining his country was one of his greatest regrets. Image Credit: Virendra Saklani/Photographer

    Shane Warne
    Shane Warne redefined spin bowling like never before. He brought a style quotient to slow bowling with his famous walk up to the crease and a ripping wind up action. Not only did Warne generate tremendous spin off the pitch, but was also immensely accurate - a trait that is very tough for a leg-spinner to conquer. Image Credit: Virendra Saklani/Photographer

    Warne’s international retirement came in 2007 after Australia reclaimed the Ashes series of 2006-07, which was his ultimate goal. In March 2008, he signed to play for the Rajasthan in the Indian T20 League as their captain and coach and led the team to the title glory. Image Credit: Virendra Saklani/Photographer
