An ice-cool, reliable and sturdy batsman, Misbah-ul-Haq however heads this list of worst conversion rates. The world might remember the former Pakistan skipper for that fateful scoop he played in the WT20 final in 2007, but he was one of the main reasons for Pakistan’s resurgence in world cricket.

After the spot-fixing saga in 2010, the way Misbah led Pakistan was remarkable. He was inspirational, confident and successful as he went on to become Pakistan’s most successful Test skipper.

With the bat, very few could bat the way he did. He could adjust in such a way that he could bat (and score runs) in any conditions and on any pitch. But there will be one record Misbah will want to forget and that would be his conversion rate.

He had a conversion rate of 20.41%. He has crossed 50 on 49 occasions but only has 10 hundreds. Thus, it puts him at #1 on this list.
