#6 Shane Watson (Australia)
Role- All-rounder Batting Style-Right-handed Bowling Style- Right-Arm medium Fast
Arguably, one of the Australia’s best all-rounders ever, Shane Watson has become the pillar of strength for the Australian team. Not only did Watson bowl 10 overs regularly in the limited-overs format, but he had the ability to strike the ball sweetly to all parts of the ground.
He is the only player to win Australian "Player of the Year" award in all formats and won seven such awards in three formats, which is the most by any player. He also holds the record of the highest individual score (185* vs Bangladesh) by Australian in ODI. He is the last player to retire from Australia's golden era of early 2000s.
