Andy Flower who is currently working for England Cricket Team as a coach, was also one of the most laudable,great and re-known player of the Zimbabwe Cricket Team. Along With great keeping he was also legendary batsman for the Zimbabwe.
The elder of two Test-playing brothers, Andy Flower was for a long time Zimbabwe's only batsman of true Test quality in all conditions. For a period of about two years from the start of 2000 he was so phenomenally consistent that he has no rival as the best player in Zimbabwe's history.
Put this Test and ODI record together and you get over 300 dismissals and more than 11,000 runs scored. Coming from a team which was never at par with the heavyweights, Andrew Flower showed the way. He lit the path and asked his teammates to follow him. A batsman of finesse and class, style and surprise, power and elegance, Andy Flower packed a number of shots with him when facing bowlers from around the world. His wicket keeping skills were also a support system to the otherwise desolated Zimbabwe side who always missed out on victories and much deserved accolades. Top Ten Greatest Wicket keepers Of All Time is proud to have Andy Flower at number seven.
