Wasim Akram

The Sultan of Swing bowled left-arm with a whippy, short run-up and a very fast arm, swinging the ball both ways at pace, conventional and reverse. His two deliveries to Allan Lamb and Chris Lewis in the 1992 World Cup final, late in-swing and away-swing, are the best demonstration of his skill. He was as dangerous in Tests as in one-day cricket, with over 900 international wickets in total.
