Allan Border

Allan Border is an Australian former international cricketer and current cricket commentator, born in 1955. A left-handed batsman who also bowled occasional slow left-arm spin, he captained the Australian team for many years and led it to victory in the 1987 Cricket World Cup, the first world title in Australia's history. He played 156 Test matches, a record until Steve Waugh passed it, and for a time held the record for consecutive Test appearances. Border retired as Australia's most-capped player and leading run-scorer in both Tests and one-day internationals, and he was among the first 55 players inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame.
