6. ANDREW SYMONDS:
He is a former Australian cricket all-rounder. He was also themember of the two-time World Cup winning team. Symonds is a right-handed middle order batsman and alternates between medium pace and off-spin bowling. He is also notable for his exceptional fielding skills. His other name in cricketing circles is controversial king

• Symonds was set to play for Australia in the August 2008 series against Bangladesh in Darwin, but was sent home to Queensland after missing the team meeting on the Friday while he was out fishing.
• Since mid-2008, he spent most of the time out of the team, due to disciplinary reasons, including alcohol. In June 2009 he was sent home from the World Twenty20 tournament, his third suspension, expulsion or exclusion from selection in the space of a year. His central contract was then withdrawn too.
• In 2007, crowds at the One Day Series in Vadodara, Nagpur and Mumbai were seen to offend Symonds with monkey chants. After the BCCI initially denied the incident that took place at Vadodara, further incidents occurred at the other grounds in the series.
