Anthony "Tony" William Greig (born October 6, 1946) is a former cricketer and currently a commentator.
Although born in South Africa, Greig qualified to play for England by virtue of his Scottish father, and at six foot seven in height he cut an impressive figure. He became captain of the national side from 1975 to 1977.
Geoffrey Boycott (born October 21, 1940) is a former Yorkshire and England cricketer. In an illustrious, but sometimes controversial career from 1962 to 1986, Boycott established himself as one of England's finest opening batsmen. He followed up his playing career by becoming an often outspoken cricket commentator on both Radio and Television.

G'day Gaurang S,
Thank you for your question.
Tony Greig and Geoff Boycott both played for England.
Greig was born in South Africa but captained England between 1975 and 1977. These days he is a senior member of the Channel 9 commentary team.
Geoffrey or Geoff Boycott scored over 8,000 runs for England in 108 tests. These days he commentates for both the BBC and Five network. He captained England for two tests in 1978 when Mike Brearley was injured.
I have attached sources for your reference.
