A fantastic cricketer and exceptional leader who has been at the forefront at a lot of recent innovations. It was his decision to try Adam Gilchrist as an opener in one dayers - and history will tell the tale of that. He was the person that helped pioneer the days of a run rate of 4 in test cricket
He was a man that showed you can reinvent yourself and make yourself a better player, after he returned to the side in 1992 a more rugged player than his earlier flashier days.
He reinvented the symbolism and pride that came with wearing the baggy green.
He was a man that took on the board in the mid 90's and helped provide the players with the better conditions they have today.
He was also a great person in general and his work with the children of Udayan in Kolkota is a testament to the generosity of the man.

The man is pehaps the toughest cricketer to have ever played the game . Hard to give higher praise.
