2. Jesse Ryder:
The Kiwi cricket went close to death and made a comeback. He was in the Intensive Care Unit for a while after going into Coma. Ryder required medical assistance to keep breathing when he was rushed to hospital in a critical condition.
He suffered serious head and lung injuries after being attacked as he left a bar in the South Island city of Christchurch. Two men have been charged with assault and were immediately arrested by the policemen.
However, Jesse Ryder has a well-publicized history of alcohol-related trouble and had been drinking before the incident. He was always on the headlines for his brawls in clubs. Despite that, he made a comeback and smashed the balls with ease for New Zealand.
