3. Jacob Oram

Another “Gentle Giant” from New Zealand, Jacob Oram was a muscular bowler at 6’6’’ who could get some nice procurement and bounce from even dead tracks. His all-round capabilities made him an advantage to any team that he played in.

4. Tom Moody

The 1999 World Cup winning wicketkeeper, Tom Moody is another one who used to have the extra benefit of height. He is a huge structure of 6’7’’; he was a giant and could scare batsmen from behind the stumps by being bubbly.

5. Suleiman Benn

Tall and thin West Indian spinner, Suleiman Benn is one of those infrequent bowlers who opt for spinning the bowl despite being a good 6’7’’ in height. He plays his first-class cricket for Barbados and is possibly the tallest spinner to have every played the game.
