5. Ryan Harris:
The Australian fast bowler, Ryan Harris, took 113 wickets in the 27 Tests that he played. A highly skilled pace bowler, Harris, was called up into the Australian squad for the 3rd ODI against Pakistan in 2010. He emerged with the figures of 5-43 to earn the Man of the Match. Harris claimed 5-19 in the next match, a second consecutive five wicket haul and earned the Man of the Series too. During 2011, Harris toured Sri Lanka and South Africa with the team and suffered a hip injury. Recurring injuries often kept him out of the limited overs cricket. In 2013 Ashes, he picked a five-for at Lords. The same year, he became one of only four test bowlers, who made their test debut after the age of 30, to take 100 test wickets. In 2014, he suffered a knee injury which made him sit on the sidelines for over 6 months. He made a comeback and played the series when India toured Australia in early 2015 but suffered from side strains then. He announced his retirement from cricket in July 2015, three days before the start of the Ashes.
