This is why I rate Sachin over Kohli in ODIs, absolute monster in WCs. Before usual suspects point out his finals records, check his QF/SF record. And how can a team reach SF/F without doing well in group stage? 

 

Ponting will have a comparable record if you remove minnows. His KO record is excellent, even on last legs he scored a magnificient 100 in 2011 QF, then that 2003 final onslaught. And he bossed the 2007 edition. For the first half of 90s Lara was a special ODI player, I think he had the highest peak among these 4. Kallis as usual a no impact player in ODIs, a poor man's Dravid.

Have always maintained that Dravid is an incredibly underrated ODI player, and unpopular opinion but a tad overrated in tests.

ODI SR pre-2000 might in the low 60s, led to him being benched.

Dravid's turnaround came in NZ, 1999. Beastly batting at high SR, helped us draw the series 2-2.

@zen Don't cry, we have beaten the padosis to pulp here. None of their batsmen have better stats than Tendulkar and Dravid

Ailaa is clearly the champ of world cups. Especially considering wearing pads over the saari makes movement even more difficult!

Take that Kulli!
