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

#6 Michael Bevan (Australia-batsman, left arm chinaman)

Bevan was the ultimate finisher

If batting with tail enders and finishing off close matches is concerned, Michael Bevan was the master at it. The stylish left-hander is considered the greatest ever finisher of the game alongside Indian ODI captain MS Dhoni.

An essential part of the ODI outfit, Bevan had the uncanny ability to bat under pressure and find the smallest of gaps. He was a beautiful maneuverer of the ball and scored most of his runs taking cheeky singles and twos.

Chasing 205 to win in a World Cup match against England, Australia were tottering at 135/8 before Andy Bichel and Michael Bevan stitched together a valuable 73-run partnership to bail Australia out of trouble. Bevan played a key role on numerous occasions and finished off more games for his country than any other player.

Bevan played his last ODI against Sri Lanka in 2004 and finished with nearly 7000 runs in his career with a staggering average of 53.58.
