#8 Kumara Sangakarra

England v Sri Lanka - 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup
Kumara Sangakkara

Kumara Sangakkara was one of the most elegant stroke-makers to play for Sri Lanka in ODI cricket. Sangakkara's batting had of touch a classy and flair. He was a prolific run scorer across different batting conditions courtesy his robust technique and sound temperament. The ever-dependable left-hander along with Mahela Jayawardene became the backbone of the Sri Lankan batting order, scoring heaps of runs for almost two decades. 'Sanga' stepped up his game at major tournaments and notably scored four centuries at the 2015 World Cup. His greatness as a batsman often undermines his wicket-keeping skills behind the stumps which was as clinical as his batting.

ODI - 404

Man of the Match Awards - 31
