The Test Cricket Hall of Fame - 50 to 46: 'Let's put nine minutes on the clock - six for this chap's career and three minutes for controversy'

In this episode of the Men's Test Cricket Hall of Fame, we continue our countdown by discussing players 50 to 46 (scroll to the bottom of the description if you can't wait to find out who they are).
As we move into the top 50 on our list, this group includes one of the all-time leading wicket-takers, a controversial figure (especially in New Zealand), two greats of West Indian batting and then one of England's most famous cricketing names.
Are any of this group ranked too low? Or are they lucky to be here? We'd love to continue the conversation, so don't hesitate to share your views via email or on social media - or give us some praise if you think we've got things spot on!
For an even deeper dive on the theory and process behind the Hall, head to our website. You'll find the Preamble, plus the list, which will eventually feature detailed write-ups about every player from 103 to 1 as we make our way through the Hall in the coming weeks and months.
If you haven't already, please take the time to give us a like, follow, share or subscribe on all our channels (@toporderpod on Twitter and Facebook, & @thetoporderpodcast on Instagram) and a (5-Star!) review at your favourite podcast provider, or tell a friend to download. It really helps others find the show and is the best thing you can do to support us. A few of our episodes are available on YouTube - we're slowly chipping away at populating this channel.
You can also dip back into our guest episodes - including conversations with Finn Allen, Shane Bond, Michael Hussey, Tim Southee, Katey Martin, George Dobell and many more fascinating people from all across the cricketing world.
If you'd like to reach out to us with feedback, questions or guest suggestions, get in touch at [email protected].
Thanks for listening.
