Top 5 bowlers with most wickets between 2003 and 2007 World Cup

#1 Brett Lee (Australia) - 147 wickets

Lee's pace coupled with aggression proved to be a deadly combination

Australia's smiling assassin Brett Lee was the world's most successful ODI bowler during the period between the 2003 and 2007 ODI World Cup, picking up 147 wickets from just 86 matches.

Remaining injury-free was key to Lee's success during the period as he enjoyed an uninterrupted run in the side

He picked up a four-wicket haul six times and a five-wicket haul on three occasions during the period as he blew away the opposition with his fiery pace alongside the deadly accurate Glenn McGrath, proving to be his ideal foil.

With 380 ODI wickets to his name, which also included 22 wickets in the 2003 World Cup helping Australia clinch the trophy, Lee was an outstanding player, not just with the ball, but also handy with the bat.
