10 most selfish players in cricket history

6. Richard Hadlee

Sir Richard Hadlee, one of the father figures of New Zealand cricket, had his own share of controversial and selfish moments during his career which truncated his image. He shortened his run up during the final few years of his career to play for a longer time, thus become a lot more ineffective as a bowler. He was also a stubborn captain as many old articles by historians suggest and barely listened to anyone.

He also used records and statistics as the primary tool to select cricketers, a strategy which not many liked. The rumour has it that he never watched a lot of cricketers play before picking them up. He also never shared the prize money which he used to receive for winning player of the tournament awards, which always used to be shared between teammates.
