Sourav Ganguly
Sourav Ganduly is one among the most accomplished Indian batsmen. In 1988-89, Sourav Ganguly made his First Class debut for Kolkata in a Ranji Trophy final. As they had already lost to Delhi in their previous match, this match was crucially important for Bengal. It was India's opportunity to avenge their previous loss and win the trophy.
Andre Russell
Andre Russell is known for being one of the most exciting batsmen in cricket. He is a skilled and versatile all-rounder, who makes the most of the limited-overs format. The Australian was a standout performer in the first half of the 2015 World Cup. His ability to take wickets has made him one the most highly-respected batsmen. He has been a prolific player in T20 cricket, and also many Tests. He is also a great fielder.
Fielderless run-outs
There are two types. The first adds almost nothing to the game. The second type is the one that happens when both batsmen agree for a run. This is when brilliance of the fielder comes into play.
Stumping
A stumping in cricket is when a batsman loses his ability to run. The wicket-keeper or fielder may put down or break the batsman's bowl, stopping him from running. The wicket-keeper, or fielder, may also be stumped.
