Azharuddin is one of the best middle order ODI batsman India has ever had. He played for India in 4 World Cups (from 1987-1999) and captained the side in three of them (1992, 1996 & 1999).

In the 30 World Cup matches he played, he scored 826 runs. Under his leadership, India reached the semifinals in 1996 World Cup, only to lose out to the eventual champions, Sri Lanka. However, in his long and illustrious career, Azhar never tasted World Cup victory.
