Best Answer

Kerry Packer was an Australian media tycoon. He is most commonly known for inventing World Series Cricket. He brought about a series of changes in cricket by making it more appealing to the audience. He introduced coloured dresses, helmets, cricket under lights, field restrictions etc.

Most importantly he drove home the lesson that cricket was a marketable game with a potential to earn huge revenues.
