3. Shahid Afridi
Shahid Afridi was always a leg spinner. But with time, he also developed himself as an aggressive batter. As a spinner, Afridi does not have that great numbers in Tests. In ODIs, Afridi had longevity but did not maintain consistency as a bowler. In T20Is, Afridi was a fine bowler and helped Pakistan to win the T20 World Cup. But Afridi is known for his exploits as a batter, particularly in the limited-overs cricket. Afridi turned out to be a beast as a lower-order batter and remained a highly aggressive one throughout his career. He was not that consistent. But when on song, Afridi was one of the most devastating batters in world cricket.
