#2 Robin Jackman
Jackman was born in Shimla on August 13, 1945. He is a notable commentator these days and featured in 4 Test matches and 15 One-Day Internationals for England. His father was posted in Shimla and a year after Jackman was born he lost a leg in a war. The family then moved to England where young Jackman took a liking for the game.
He had a brilliant first-class career with Surrey where he grabbed 1402 wickets from 399 outings. He also had 33 international wickets with best figures of 4/110. The cricketer had his fair share of controversy as well when he chose to play in South Africa—a country which was then isolated internationally because of apartheid. Jackman could have played a little more for England but then again he made his debut at a not so young age of 35. He is now more known for his commentary skills.
