6. Kumar Sangakkara
Sri Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara is the greatest batting superstar to have emerged from his country and also among the best of all-time. His phenomenal batting feats and incredible consistency put Sangakkara in a league of his own. Sangakkara had a tame start to his career but he was quick to make up for it and never looked back since then.
The sublime left-hander, though, did have phases in his career when he struggled to get runs on the board. In the 2003/04 season, Kumar Sangakkara played 11 innings in 6 Tests where he could manage a mere 277 runs at a low average of 25.18. This included a top score of 71 and just a solitary half-century.
