In fact My favs..I mean not all time greats..but my favs which might not be the greatest players are:

1. Mohammed Azharuddin

2. Mark Waugh

3.Damien Martin

4.Brian Lara

5.Saeed Anwar.

Azhar and Mark Waugh were so artistic in their batting. Their batting always looked so effortless that when they got out seemed they played really recklessly. Their batting was smooth as silk, the shots were just effortless, a light flick and the ball would race on the on side to the boundary. His centuries against South Africa in 96-97, specially the one in Calcutta where he hit 74 ball hundred where he hit Lance Klusener for 5 consecutive fours ( all on the on side ) were so good that even Klusener applauded. Mark Waugh was exactly the same. Same with Damien Martin. As far as Saeed Anwar was concerned I enjoyed him open the batting coz he would score so freely without trying too hard..specially against Indian bowlers.
