#2 Brendon McCullum- 12 hundreds, 14 ducks
Brendon McCullum was a maverick all-rounder. He was an acrobatic wicket-keeper, a sensational fielder, an innovative captain and a cool-headed sportsman. But his primary identity was of a flamboyant batsman who stepped out of his crease to pacers and spinners alike and could nonchalantly hit strokes which were deemed to be dangerous by traditional batsmen.
When at the crease, he guaranteed entertainment with his aggressive batting and delivered plenty of action. The only way to neutralise his threat was to send him back to the dressing room.
The New Zealand cricketer was the perfect example of a 'boom and bust' batsman. If it wasn't his day, he would be back in the pavilion in no time, but if it was his day then everyone else would be back in the pavilion very soon because McCullum believed in finishing the game quickly.
He has to his name 14 ducks in Test cricket but he also slammed 12 Test hundreds displaying his batting prowess.
