#5 Michael Klinger
Michael Klinger is perhaps the most underrated Australian opener in the history of cricket. The Aussie opener made headlines for his stupendous performances while playing for the South Australia Redbacks in the Champions League T20. His brilliant form in the CLT20 led to the Kochi Tuskers Kerala signing him ahead of the 2011 IPL season.

Klinger donned the purple and orange jersey of Kochi Tuskers Kerala in 4 matches, where he scored 73 runs at an average of 18.25. The Australian batsman could not make it big in the Indian Premier League, as he had a highest score of just 29 runs that season.
The T20 veteran announced his retirement from the Big Bash League after the 38-year-old played for the Perth Scorchers in the 2019 season.
