With over 4000 runs in Tests and 6000 runs in ODIs, Andy Flower is widely considered to be one of the greatest batsmen of the modern era. The mainstay of the Zimbabwean batting line-up and a fine wicket-keeper, he was a devastating batsman who could tear bowling attacks apart when on song.

He along with his team-mate Henry Olonga ran into controversy for protesting against the lack of democracy in Zimbabwe during the 2003 World Cup. Like his brother Grant Flower, he went on to join Essex after his retirement and also played for South Australia in Australian domestic cricket.

He left Essex to take up the position of the assistant coach of the England team in 2007. After Peter Moores stepped down in 2009, he became the head coach of England. Considered to be one of the finest coaches for England till date, he won three consecutive Ashes titles. England also became the number one Test team during his tenure.

He stepped down from his coaching role in 2014 but continued as the technical director of elite coaching for the England and Wales Cricket Board. He was recently appointed as the head coach of Peshawar Zalmi in the Pakistan Super League.
