Sir Isaac Vivian Alexander Richards, KNH, OBE, is a former West Indian cricketer. Popularly known as Viv, he is almost unequivocally regarded as the greatest One Day International batsman of all time, as also the most destructive and feared ever, and as one of the very greatest to have ever played the game. Richards was voted one of the five Cricketers of the Century in 2000, by a 100-member panel of experts, along with Sir Donald Bradman, Sir Garfield Sobers, Sir Jack Hobbs and Shane Warne. In February 2002, Richards was judged by Wisden Cricketers' Almanack to have played the best ODI innings of all time. In December 2002, he was chosen by Wisden as the greatest ODI batsman of all time, as well as the third greatest Test batsman of all time, after Sir Don Bradman and Sachin Tendulkar. LESS
