1) Kevin Pietersen
The flamboyant right-hander has been controversy”s favorite kid. Throughout the course of his career, there have hardly been few months on a trot when Pietersen was not involved in a controversy. When England toured India in 2012, Pietersen played one of the most sensational innings by a foreign player on Indian soil (186 at Mumbai). He was a great time in 2012-13 with an average of 44 during that time. When England got whitewashed in Ashes down under, Pietersen was made scapegoat and unfairly sacked with still 3-4 years of cricket left in him
