Who has won the most number of Man of the Series awards in ODIs

#4 Viv Richards (MoS awards- 7; Series played- 40)

4. Viv Richards (West Indies)

Sir Viv Richards sits at number 4 on this list. It speaks volumes about how the Windies legend was a player miles ahead of his time as he won the award 7 times in as less as 40 series that he was a part of. The lesser frequency of international series in those days certainly helped a few others in this list to have maintained their positions.

#3 Shaun Pollock (MoS awards- 9; Series played- 60)

3. Shaun Pollock (South Afr

The former South African legend, was perhaps the greatest all-rounder South Africa ever produced after Jacques Kallis. Shaun Pollock sits at number 3 in this list with a total of 9 MoS awards in 60 series. In a list that is dominated by batting greats, it is refreshing to see a bowling all-rounder mark his presence.
