ICC Hall of Fame Welcomes Alastair Cook, Neetu David, and AB de Villiers

Alastair Cook, Neetu David, and AB de Villiers have been inducted into the prestigious ICC Hall of Fame, joining an elite group of cricket legends.

Neetu David, a former Indian left-arm spinner, becomes the second Indian woman after Diana Edulji to receive this honor. With 100 ODI wickets, she holds the record for the most wickets by an Indian woman in the format. Her exceptional bowling average of 16.34 remains unmatched by any bowler, male or female, with at least 100 ODI wickets.

Alastair Cook, England's former opening batsman, was a prolific run-scorer and century-maker. He played a pivotal role in England's Ashes victory in Australia in 2010-11 and led the team to two consecutive home Ashes wins in 2013 and 2015.

AB de Villiers, the South African batting maestro, revolutionized the game with his innovative strokeplay. He holds the records for the fastest 50, 100, and 150 in ODI cricket. With over 20,000 international runs, he was a key member of South Africa's semi-final appearances at the 2007 and 2015 ODI World Cups.

The ICC Hall of Fame recognizes the exceptional achievements of cricketers who have made significant contributions to the sport. The induction of David, Cook, and de Villiers is a testament to their outstanding skills, dedication, and impact on the game.
