3. Suraj Randiv

In the previous decade, Sura Randiv was an active member of the Sri Lankan limited-overs squad. Many Indian fans remember him for bowling a no-ball when Virender Sehwag was left stranded at 99 not out.

Nevertheless, Randiv too is a cricketer that altered his religion. Originally his name was Mohammed Marsuk Suraj but due to some undisclosed reasons, he became Suraj Randiv and adopted Buddhism.
