Brendon McCullum will always be remembered for, firstly, his ability to destroy bowling attacks with sheer confidence and bludgeoning skills. Secondly, he will go down as one of New Zealand's most innovative and successful captains as he led the team emphatically in times of transition.

A thorough crowd entertainer, Baz was an out-and-out aggressive player who represented his country in 101 Tests. In the last one of his 14-year cricket career, the skipper bid adieu in grand fashion as he slammed the fastest Test century in just 54 balls.

Also having kept wickets for a major portion at the beginning of his career, it surely is surprising to see him feature on this list.

In the second Test against Pakistan on their tour to UAE in 2014, the last wicket stand between Sarfaraz Ahmed and Rahat Ali turned out to be the bone in their neck. Captain of the team, McCullum took it upon himself to break the partnership.

And thus after adding 81 runs and facing 28 overs for the last wicket stand, Ahmed (112) fell to McCullum, who caught him off his own bowling to account for his only Test scalp.
