All time left-handed ODI XI (current and retired across all era's)

There is something inherently graceful about the way a left-hander bats and David Gower was no exception

#4 Kumar Sangakkara (Sri Lanka-batsman)

Sangakkara captained Sri Lanka for several years

The Sri Lankan legend Kumar Sangakkara comes in at No.4. He is just behind Sachin Tendulkar in the leading run scorer list in ODIs. Since making his debut, Sangakkara has been a consistent performer for Sri Lanka and have bailed them out of trouble on various occasions.

Sangakkara has been a vital cog for the Sri Lankan batting line-up for a number of years and is the only batsman in the world to score four consecutive centuries in ODI cricket. He achieved the rare feat while playing his last ODI tournament, the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015. Besides his batting abilities, he is also a very good wicket keeper and can don the gloves if Gilchrist is injured.

Sangakkara played his last ODI against South Africa in the 2015 World Cup quarter-final. He finished his career with 14,234 runs at an average of 41.98. He also scored 25 centuries and 93 half centuries.
