#9 Zaheer Khan

One of the best fast bowlers India has produced, Zaheer Khan led the Indian pace attack and carried the burden on his shoulders for a long time. He was phenomenal in the 2003 World Cup as he ended up as the leading wicket-taker for the Indian side and the 4th highest overall.

He continued to lead the pace attack for the Indian side right until the 2011 World Cup where he ended up as the joint highest wicket-taker along with Pakistan’s Shahid Afridi. He was plagued with injuries towards the end of his career, which eventually led to him giving way to the likes of Mohammed Shami and Umesh Yadav. He announced his retirement from cricket in 2015 and is currently enjoying his life outside cricket.
