On field only or also off field impact?

If including off field impact, Frank Worrell & Wes Hall would be up there

Five greatest cricketers.

There’s such a thing as an “off-field cricketer”?

How can we determine the greatest player when athletes play in different eras?
Michael Jordan emphasized the importance of considering the era, particularly regarding Bill Russell's achievement of winning 11 championships with Boston. Additionally, Tiger Woods aimed to win 18 major titles but is currently stuck at 14.
Da-Vincy, Australians always have Don Bradman as the best, all other Australians are listed after him.
Sir Frank is the Godfather of West Indies cricket, as a Vincy, you should respect him when speaking of our cricket history.

Can we tone down on the potency of the rum being served here? Not even VOR would conjure up this nonsense.

Not sure of the matrix being used to arrive at these five, however, the only others I could think of adding are:

Clive Lloyd - the catalyst behind our rise to the top.
Frank Worrell - he made the world take notice of and respect our cricketers, especially the non-Caucasians.
