Cricket is a very popular game to nearly 2 billion people in the world. Cricket has now turned into a billion dollar sports industry. This beautiful game has produced some great cricketers over the years. It was a very difficult task to choose among hundreds of players and among them the most capable and from those the most talented and from those the most entertaining.And thus below we have compiled the list of such greats who grace the cricket at present.
Best Batsmen

Batting is one of the most exiciting part of cricket for cricket fans. A good batsman is one who can protect his wicket and at the same time score runs. The bigger the shot-selection, the better the batsman. We have made a list of the five of the greatest batsmen in the world. Well, it is a very tough thing to do. In todays cricketing world there are numerous batsman competing for the much acclaimed numero uno spot.
 
Best Bowlers
Bowling is a technique by which a person (bowler) runs up to the wickets and throws the ball to the batsman, with a full arm, trying to hit the wicket to get the batsman out. There are many types of bowlers, from fast to slow, spin to swing. Spinners are slow bowlers who manage to get the ball to change direction when hitting the ground. Swingers are those bowlers who manage to get the ball to move away or towards a batsman. Good bowlers can be terribly confusing because of the way they have perfected their bowling. 

Best All-Rounders
When it comes to cricket, all rounders play a vital role behind the success of a team. An all-rounder is a cricket player who excels at both batting and bowling. Although all bowlers must bat, and most batsmen end up bowling occasionally, most players are skilled in only one of the two disciplines. Wicket-keepers who are also very good batsmen are considered by some to be all-rounders.
