changed?

i would have to ask how some of these have changed the cricketing world apart from being pretty good players and in some cases holding world records for batting or bowling at some time.

people who changed it for me either did something that impacted on the rules of the game (so that includes the woman who invented overarm bowling as well as Murali), something that altered the course of the game (Packer, Murdoch and possibly Stanford spring to mind), or people who changed the image of the game (I would suggest Flower/Olonga for their Zimbabwean stance and D'Oliveira)
