Arguably considered as the most destructive wicket keeper batsman to grace the game, Adam Gilchrist was an outright match winner with the willow in his hand. Be it as an ODI opener or a No. 7 in Test cricket, Gilchrist tore apart bowling attacks with his belligerent hitting.
Gilchrist’s batting revolved around razor-sharp reflexes, terrific bat swing, and clean ball striking. Pace or spin, he was equal to the task at tormenting attacks with utter disdain. His fierce cuts and pulls were as good as anyone in the game.
An entertainer to the core, the Australian legend ended up with over 250 sixes across all formats in a glittering international career.
