Jacques Kallis is one of the greatest all-rounders to have played the game. He has over 24,000 runs and 550 wickets in international cricket. He has pouched more than 300 international catches. As a batsman, Kallis can be rock-solid in defence and can also play powerful shots whenever necessary. While his bowling has lost a bit of pace over the years, he can still bowl economically and take regular wickets. He has also mastered the Twenty20 format and was in contention for the Orange Cap in IPL 2010 while playing for the Royal Challengers Bangalore. He joined the Kolkata Knight Riders before IPL 2011, and has been their rock of Gibraltar at the top of the order.
