Albie Morkel
(South African Cricketer)
Albie Morkel is a South African all-round cricketer who was a hard hitting Left-hand batsman and right-arm medium pacer. He was once considered as the next big thing especially in the limited overs cricket due to his abilities to swin the bat hard and hit the ball out of the park at will. Though, he was a bit unlucky with his injuries which cut short his career, but his ability to hit the ball long was something worth watching.
