#5 GARRY SOBERS (365*)

Sobers
Garry Sobers converted his first Test century into a triple ton

Considered by many as the greatest all rounder to have graced the game, Sobers had the remarkable ability to pick out even the smallest of gaps on the off side, and was equally adept on his leg side play. Batting with a high backlift, he was famous for his square slashes past point and glances off his pads.

As a 21-year old playing against Pakistan, he managed to convert his first international century into the highest score in Test cricket, a record that stood for 36 long years before being usurped by another West Indian.
