Top 10 players who made their debut as teenagers and went on to achieve greatness

Sir Garry Sobers

The greatest all-rounder to have played the game

Despite making his international debut just three months before his 18th debut, Garry Sobers looked at ease as he picked up a four-wicket haul in his first Test innings. After that, he would go on to rewrite what it means to be an all-rounder in cricket. While there have been many successful all-rounders since then, no one can come close to the elegant West Indian.

His records speak for themselves. Not only did he have over 8,000 runs at an average of 57 but he also had 235 wickets to his name. He broke the record of the highest Test (at the time) when he scored an unbeaten 365* at the age of 21 and aside from being a brilliant fielder, could also bowl left-arm orthodox, wrist spin and pace.

He is not only a complete all-rounder but also the finest that the game has ever seen.
