2. CARL HOOPER:
Carl Hooper, the West Indian legendary player, holds a record of being the first cricketer in the world to have scored 5000 runs and to take 100 wickets. The Caribbean player suddenly announced his retirement just three weeks before the 1999 world cup but later he made a comeback in 2001 to the international side. He was named as the captain of his side and he leads his team in 2003 world cup tournament in which the West Indies team couldn’t make it to the second round of the tournament due to some abysmal performances by the team players. Even then he was named in the squad for the next match but he pulled himself back and retired from international cricket because he wanted a young player to play for the team in his place.
