#1 Sanath Jayasuriya

In limited overs cricket, there have been plenty of trendsetting cricketers over the years and Sanath Jayasuriya was once such. The former Sri Lankan great took Mark Greatbatch’s template of power hitting during the field restrictions overs and turned it into something far more dangerous. He did it consistently and over the course of a career that lasted 22 years (1989-2011) and spanned 445 ODIs.
However, his feet movement often made him a prime candidate for the LBW dismissal, particularly against bowlers who could bring the ball back into him. The left-hander was dismissed LBW as many as 47 times in his ODI career and that remains the highest in ODI history. His LBW dismissal percentage stands at 10.85.
