Shane Warne Australia

Despite the fact that the history of Australian cricket is dominated by legendary athletes for their on-field exploits, the public’s attention isn’t always drawn to wickets, runs, or memorable catches.

While Shane Warne and Sir Donald Bradman are arguably Australia’s greatest bowlers of all time, respectively, and Shane Warne is widely regarded as the country’s greatest cricketer, the question of who is the greatest person is undoubtedly debatable and far more subjective.

Boonie, Pez, Gilly, Punter, Skull, Thomo, DK, and Merv. They are but a few of the countless legendary Australian cricketers who have won the hearts of cricket fans and won the admiration of their countrymen by performing acts that go above and beyond their prowess with bat and ball.

The campaign, which was developed in collaboration with News Corp, is being led by Brett Lee and launched on Monday with the publication of a shortlist of 100 former and current players.

The best 100 players are listed from Johnny Mullagh, who debuted 150 years ago, to Ellyse Perry, one of the greatest female players in history.

There are 98 more of Australia’s most recognizable names amongst them, including Don Bradman and Shane Warne legends as well as modern-day talents Steve Smith and David Warner.

Fans may also select scurrilous candidates like Kerry O’Keeffe and Merv Hughes or strong contenders like Ian Chappell or Allan Border.

Among Australian cricket fans, the campaign will undoubtedly stir up memories of the past while also sparking discussion about who should be selected first.

From a list of the most renowned figures from various eras, fans will be able to choose the top personality. The winner will be announced during the Melbourne Test against South Africa, which will be broadcast on Fox Cricket, on Monday, December 1.
