ICC Cricket Hall of Fame

Hall of fame for cricket in Dubai


The ICC Cricket Hall of Fame recognises "the achievements of the legends of the game from cricket's long and illustrious history".[1] It was launched by the International Cricket Council (ICC) in Dubai on 2 January 2009, in association with the Federation of International Cricketers' Associations (FICA), as part of the ICC's centenary celebrations.[1] The initial inductees were the 55 players included in the FICA Hall of Fame which ran from 1999 to 2003,[2] but further members are added each year during the ICC Awards ceremony.[1] The inaugural inductees ranged from W. G. Grace, who retired from Test cricket in 1899, to Graham Gooch, who played his last Test match in 1995.[3] Living inductees receive a commemorative cap; Australian Rod Marsh was the first member of the initial inductees to receive his. Members of the Hall of Fame assist in the selection of future inductees.[2]

Out of 112 inductees in the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame, 82 are from England, Australia and the West Indies, while the other 30 inductees are from the remaining Test playing nations, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, South Africa, Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe.
