7. Mark Taylor:
Mark Taylor is one of the most respected voices in cricket and has been actively covering Australia’s matches.
This Aussie left-handed opening batsman took over the reins from another all-time great in Allan Border. He was excellent in the slip cordon and received accolades for the way he led the team to victories home and away against every team except for a series win in India.
Captain and opening batsman combo can be a tough ask but Taylor did a great job. Highlights of his away performances include his career highest of 334* versus Pakistan in Peshawar and a mammoth 839 runs in his first tour of England.
