#2 Jack Gregory
Jack Gregory, the New South Wales-born Australia cricketer had a brief career which spanned for only 24 Test matches, but then he made a substantial impact in the limited opportunity.
Gregory was mainly known as a strapping fast bowler, but his effectiveness with the bat can be gauged from his numbers. He scored 1146 runs with an average 36.50, which included 2 centuries. With the ball, he picked up 84 wickets at an average of 31.15.
Gregory batted without any gloves, and also did not any protective box. However, a chronic knee injury in 1928 halted his career with a jitter. He was named the Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1922.
