Gordon Greenidge: Made his debut against India in 1974-75. The opener put the world on notice with his awesome showing from the very first Test match, with scores of 93 and 107.
Vivian Richards: Unfortunately for India, the champion also started his journey from these parts; again, from the 1974-75 tour. His 192 in his very second Test match made everybody sit up and take and start the applause.
Dean Jones: He was just a fantastic one-day player till he came to India in 1986-87. The heat in Chennai made a man out of him. Battling fatigue and exhaustion he compiled one of the greatest knocks of all time 210.
Andy Flower: After the debut 59, the Zimbabwean scored three hundreds against India. The last two series that Zimbabwe played against India, Flower was always the dominant force in the otherwise pedestrian set up.
