Rahul Dravid:
The Karnataka batsman received widespread acclamation as he debuted in the 1999 World Cup scoring 461 runs from 8 games as he emerged as the highest run-scorer of the tournament. Dravid was successful again in the 2003 tournament where India lost to Australia in the finals.
The former Indian captain scored 318 runs and affected 16 dismissals as wicketkeeper in the tournament. In 2007, India had an unsuccessful campaign in the Carribean as the team was knocked out in the group stages under the captaincy of Dravid.
Perhaps, he is one of those cricketers, who richly deserves a world cup.
