2. Wilfred Rhodes (England)

Rhodes was one of the first few great all-rounders

Former England all-rounder Wilfred Rhodes is among the first few greats of the cricketing world. Not only was he an accomplished left-arm spinner, he also was a regular contributor with the bat during his playing days. In an international career which lasted 31 years, Rhodes played 58 Tests and scored 2325 runs at a 30-plus average.

The right-hander played for England in all eleven positions as a batsman. Rhodes spent most of his career opening the batting for his country and had a tally of 1469 runs at numbers 1 and 2. Apart from that, he was seen most at the No. 10 position in the line-up where he batted in 15 innings.
