4. Nasser Hussain:
Former England cricketer Nasser Hussain had a more than a decent international career as a batsman for his native country. Born in the Indian city of Chennai (formerly Madras), Hussain fought hard to establish himself in the English team but made his opportunities count when they came.
Shrewd, cunning, astute, Hussain was also known for being highly aggressive and adept at mind games. As a batsman, he wasn’t stylish but doughty and tenacious. An Ashes double hundred in 1997 which led to his team’s victory would remain his finest personal milestone.
