England, who are the defending champions, are the favourites to win the title, along with their arch-rivals Australia.

In 1983, India beat the West Indies in the final and got a chance to lift the trophy under the majestic leadership of Kapil Dev. Currently, Australia are the most successful team in the marquee One-Day International (ODI) event, as they have five trophies in their cabinet. Of these five titles, the Aussies have won twice under Ricky Ponting. Among the quality sides, New Zealand and South Africa are yet to bag the prestigious trophy.

India clinched their second World Cup title in 2011, and Tendulkar played a crucial role in his team’s success. Piling up 482 runs with two centuries and two fifties in nine matches at a strike rate of 91.98, he became the second-leading run-getter in the tournament, following Tilakaratne Dilshan.&nbsp;

In the final match, Richards took the England bowling line-up to the cleaners and hit an unbeaten 138-run knock. His unprecedented innings put the Windies team in a commanding position, and in the end, the Caribbean side pocketed the contest comfortably by 92 runs.&nbsp;

During the unsuccessful campaign of the Caribbeans, Richards looked at his best and accumulated 367 runs with a century and two fifties in seven innings of eight matches.

In 2011, India created history as it became the first side to win the World Cup title at home. Under the magnificent leadership of MS Dhoni, the Men in Blue displayed their best and won the title after beating quality teams such as Australia, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. During their stunning journey, Sachin Tendulkar and Zaheer Khan produced their best in the batting and bowling departments, respectively, while <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/social-tracker-cricket/ipl-2023-yuvraj-singh-mocks-ravindra-jadeja-for-taking-his-hairstyle-for-granted/" title=" Yuvraj Singh " target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Yuvraj Singh </strong></a>served the side with his all-round shows.

At the crucial stage of the game, Yuvraj showed nerves of steel and stitched an unbeaten 74-run partnership with Suresh Raina. Riding on Yuvraj’s 57-run knock, India eliminated the defending champions from the tournament.

Lance Klusener was one of the greatest players of his time. During 1996-2004, he played 171 ODI games for South Africa and won a lot of matches with his all-round talent. In the 1999 World Cup, South Africa played exceptionally but failed to have their hands on the trophy due to a tied match against Australia in the semi-final.

With the blockbuster clash resulting in a stalemate, South Africa’s journey got ended in the tournament as Australia advanced to the final on the basis of their superior net run rate in the Super Six round. The match is often known as Klusener’s plucky batting performance. With the toppling of South Africa’s batting attack, the left-handed batter played some exquisite strokes and gathered 31 runs off 16 balls. His courageous batting took his team close but couldn’t take it across the line.

Notching up 281 runs and 17 wickets in nine matches, he became the recipient of the Player of the Tournament award at the end of the competition. Klusener also ended up as the highest wicket-taker for South Africa in the marquee event.&nbsp;

For the last few years, Mitchell Starc is an essential part of Australia’s pace attack. His ability to hunt batters with his inswingers makes him one of the most difficult bowlers for batters to confront. In 2015, the 11th edition of the ODI World Cup was played down under, and Starc proved his mettle by clinching the Player of the Tournament award.

Fetching 22 wickets in eight matches at an economy of 3.50, he became the joint-leading wicket-taker with New Zealand’s Trent Boult. In a group match against New Zealand at Eden Park, he went berserk and trapped six Kiwi batters in his nine-wicket spell. Although Australia lost the match by a close margin of one wicket, the pacer’s extraordinary spell became a memorable moment for the supporters of the game.

In the 2019 World Cup, he maintained his consistency with the ball and became the highest wicket-taker in the competition, with 27 wickets in 10 games at an economy of 5.43. Thus far, the speedster has picked up 49 wickets in 18 matches at an economy of 4.64.

In 1992, Pakistan lifted the distinguished World Cup trophy for the first and only time under the leadership of Imran Khan. However, achieving this strenuous task was not possible without <a href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-news/form-is-temporary-and-class-is-forever-wasim-akram-heaps-praise-on-suryakumar-yadav-amid-slump-in-form/" title="Wasim Akram" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Wasim Akram</strong></a>’s bowling contribution. The left-arm pacer racked up 18 wickets in 10 matches of the tournament and came out as one of the biggest heroes of Pakistan’s achievement.

The speedster looked high-spirited in the final contest against England and delivered a match-winning performance in both batting and bowling departments. With the bat, his brisk 33 off 18 helped the Men in Green to post a decent total of 249 on the board. While Akram also managed to pick up 3/49 bowling figures in his 10-over spell to snatch the game from England. For his outstanding performance, he also got the Player of the Match award at the end of the day.

After 1992, Pakistan got a chance to play another World Cup final in 1999. Currently, the Pakistan left-armer is the highest wicket-taker for his country in World Cups, with 55 scalps in 38 games at an economy of 4.04.

<img src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/attachments/1678945776278_Shane-Warne.jpeg" alt="Shane Warne" loading="lazy"><figcaption data-gramm="false" wt-ignore-input="true">Shane Warne. (Photo Source: Twitter)</figcaption>

Shane Warne was one of the greatest stalwarts of Australian cricket. In his 15-year international career, he gave some unforgettable moments to Aussie cricket buffs. Back in the 1999 World Cup, Kangaroos won their second title in England under Steve Waugh, and Warne emerged as the biggest hero for his team in the tournament.

Trapping 20 batters in 10 matches at a frugal economy of 3.82, he concluded his journey in the tournament as a joint-leading wicket-taker, along with New Zealand’s Geoffrey Ian Allott. In the final of the competition, he bagged the Player of the Match award for his clinical bowling display against Pakistan.

Claiming 4/33 figures in his nine-over spell, Warne paved the way for his team’s triumph. In his glorifying World Cup career, the spin wizard took 32 wickets in 17 matches at an economy of 3.83.&nbsp;

<img src="https://media.crictracker.com/media/featureimage/Glenn-McGrath-2.jpg" alt="Glenn McGrath" loading="lazy"><figcaption data-gramm="false" wt-ignore-input="true">&lt;p&gt;Glenn McGrath. (Photo Source: Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;</figcaption>

From 1999 to 2007, Australia won three World Cup trophies, and in all these accomplishments, Glenn McGrath played an instrumental role with his right-arm medium-pace bowling. In the 1999 installment of the World Cup, McGrath took 18 wickets in 10 matches and earned the third position in the chart of highest wicket-takers in the tournament.

While in the 2003 World Cup, the pacer spearheaded Australia’s pace attack from the front and claimed 21 wickets in 11 matches at an economy of 3.56. This time too, he found himself among the leading wicket-takers (third spot) in the competition, following his compatriot Brett Lee and Sri Lanka’s Chaminda Vaas.

In 2007, Australia continued their domination in the World Cup held in the West Indies, and McGrath became the Player of the Tournament for his disciplined bowling. Hunting 26 wickets in 11 matches at an economy of 4.41, he ruled the leading wicket-taker chart. Currently, McGrath is the highest wicket-taker in World Cups with 71 wickets in 39 matches at a thrifty economy of 3.96. &nbsp;

<p>For the last few years, Mitchell Starc is an essential part of Australia’s pace attack. His ability to hunt batters with his inswingers makes him one of the most difficult bowlers for batters to confront. In 2015, the 11th edition of the ODI World Cup was played down under, and Starc proved his mettle by clinching the Player of the Tournament award.</p>
<p>Fetching 22 wickets in eight matches at an economy of 3.50, he became the joint-leading wicket-taker with New Zealand’s Trent Boult. In a group match against New Zealand at Eden Park, he went berserk and trapped six Kiwi batters in his nine-wicket spell. Although Australia lost the match by a close margin of one wicket, the pacer’s extraordinary spell became a memorable moment for the supporters of the game.</p>
<p>In the 2019 World Cup, he maintained his consistency with the ball and became the highest wicket-taker in the competition, with 27 wickets in 10 games at an economy of 5.43. Thus far, the speedster has picked up 49 wickets in 18 matches at an economy of 4.64.</p>
