CWC 2019: 4 greatest ODI Players who never won a World Cup

#4 Sourav Ganguly (India)

Dada captained the side beautifully in the 2003 World Cup

The God of offside goes down as one of the most iconic cricketers not to hold a World Cup trophy in his hands. Ganguly debuted in 1992 against the West Indies but his 131 and 136 against England in 1996 made him the third batsman after Lawrence Rowe and Alvin Kaalicharan to score two tons in his first two innings.

Coming to Cricket World Cups, Ganguly scored 183 against Sri Lanka in the 1999 tournament which still stands as the highest score by an Indian in a World Cup.

Dada led a young and vibrant Team India into the finals of the 2003 World Cup. While match-fixing scandals still loomed large in the air, Ganguly and his team went on to the finals only to come up short against the mighty Australians. Ganguly himself had a successful campaign, scoring 465 runs including three centuries.

Sourav Ganguly will always be known as a fearless captain who had the guts to challenge the coach and the board in doing whatever was right for the National Team. His feud with Greg Chapell and his comeback after being dropped from the squad will always be written in golden words in the history of Indian Cricket.
