The former Kiwi skipper, Brendon McCullum has played a key role in revolutionizing modern day batting with his pyrotechnics. The destructive batsman who retired from international cricket in 2016, was a part of 4 World Cups (2003, 2007, 2011 and 2015), and led his side to their first-ever appearance in the finals. He has 34 World Cup games under his belt.

McCullum aggregated 742 runs from 27 World Cup innings at an average of 33.72 and a strike rate of 120.84. Starting his career as a lower order batsman, McCullum's style of batting made him an obvious choice for the opening slot during the latter half of his career. He has 1 hundred and 6 fifties to his name in World Cups, with a highest of 101.
