Roger Binny celebrating a wicket

#4 Roger Binny and Stuart Binny

This one will be familiar to most Indian cricket fans. Roger Binny played 27 Test matches and 72 ODIs for India, mostly during the 80s. He was the highest wicket-taker in the 1983 World Cup and also played a key role in the 1985 Benson and Hedges Cup win.

A versatile all-rounder, Binny batted in the lower order and bowled medium fast. His son, Stuart, has played sporadically for India over the last few seasons. Like his father, he too is a middle-order batsman and a medium-fast bowler.

Stuart Binny in action

Stuart is yet to match the achievements of his illustrious father, although he still has time on his side. So far, he is best remembered for the epic encounter against Bangladesh in 2014 wherein he bowled an outstanding spell of 4.4-2-4-6, making it the best bowling efforts by an Indian bowler in ODIs. Chasing a mere 105, Bangladesh fell cheaply for a paltry 58 thanks to junior Binny's heroics, giving India a memorable win.
