Keith Miller

One of the finest and probably the first true all-rounder of test cricket, Keith Miller was a right arm opening fats bowler and a right-handed middle order batsman. Regarded as an excellent first slip fielder, Miller with Ray Lindwall formed Australia's first-choice opening attack. If it weren't for his career to be limited by the lack of play during World War II, his wicket tally of 170 would have been more illustrious. He took a fifer 7 times in an innings and had a bowling average of 22.97.

As per the batting department, he scored 2958 runs at 36.97, including 7 centuries and 13 half-centuries. He had a sequence of shots in store and was a classical batsman who could adapt to any situation at hand. He had the abilities to attack the innings with the willow or his fiery spell of bowling and turn the game on its head.
