5. Doug Bollinger
While the lethal left-arm pacers Mitchell Starc and Johnson troubled the Indian batters with their incredible bowling spells, India found another threat in one more Australian left-arm pacer who also happened to be on top of his game back in the day. He was Doug Bollinger. Like the two two Mitchells, Bollinger also ran through India’s batting line-up as some of the biggest names of the game looked utterly clueless.
Electing to bat first in the sixth ODI in Guwahati in November 2009, India were bundled out for 170 as Doug Bollinger destroyed the famed batting line-up with his brilliant spell, dismissing Sachin Tendulkar, Yuvraj Singh, MS Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja, and Harbhajan Singh to finish with 5/35 including four maidens.
The Aussies got past the finishing line by six wickets to win the ODI series 4-2 with the last game being washed out.
