Top 10 Players who have been run out most times in ODIs

Top 10 Players who have been run out most times in ODIs: Run outs are an important part of Cricket. They could either be the most hilarious ways to get out or if it’s your team is on the receiving end, it could as well be one of the most frustrating things on the cricket pitch.

Just ask a batsman who has battered the early storm of some ferocious fast bowling and now is looking to score some runs off the spinners and part-timers and suddenly, out of the blue, gets run out in the middle!

Since it very much depends on a batsman’s judgment, his pace running between the wickets and on the fielder he is challenging, run-outs are an uncertain form of dismissal to a great extent.

Here are the Top 10 Players who have been run out most times in ODIs:

10. Ricky Ponting – 31 Times:

When it comes to Ricky Ponting, most of us remember a player with the best hook shot under his belt. A ferocious, quite possibly the best Captain ever, Ponting was known for his aggression and shrewd tactics. Maybe if you are an Indian fan, you would remember that famous spell from Ishanth Sharma at Perth?

Regardless, Ponting always had this tendency to struggle with his running between the wickets. Maybe it was the aggression or too much confidence that succumbed Ponting to get run out, 31 times in his ODI career.

It was even more surprising because Ponting was a great athlete, one of the best fielders in his prime, he was fast and reflexive, and he certainly didn’t deserve to be on this list. But as they say, Cricket is a funny game!
