2 Wicketkeepers who completed 1000 runs in ICC ODI World Cup-compressed

A wicketkeeper-batsman performs dual roles for the team. He is mainly responsible for keeping the wickets and delivering the goods with the bat. A wicketkeeper needs to be absolutely alert and watchful behind the stumps so much that if a stumping opportunity comes, he needs to grab the opportunity by whipping the bails off.

As a result, the team will largely benefit from the wicketkeeper’s services. So far in the history of the ICC Men’s ODI World Cup tournament, only two wicketkeepers have completed 1000 runs in the mega tournament. Let’s learn about the names of the two cricketers below.

1. Kumar Sangakkara

Kumar Sangakkara is widely acknowledged as one of the greatest batsmen of all time, courtesy of his impeccable contribution to Sri Lankan cricket in Tests and One-Day Internationals. He is also the second-leading run-scorer in international cricket with 28,016 runs.

Notably, he aggregated as many as 1532 runs at a remarkable average of 57, the most by a wicketkeeper in the history of the ICC ODI World Cup tournament. Besides that, he is also the third-leading run-scorer in the ODI World Cup history.

Kumar Sangakkara has been one of the best batters during the playing days of his career. The former Sri Lankan captain scored 14,234 runs at an average of 41.99 including 25 centuries and 93 fifties.

2. Adam Gilchrist

Former Australian wicketkeeper batter Adam Gilchrist was one of the integral players of Australian cricket history. Australia immensely benefitted from Adam Gilchrist’s services as a wicketkeeper and batsman. He is the other one who has completed 1000 runs as a wicketkeeper in ICC ODI World Cup history.

Adam Gilchrist scored 1085 runs at an average of 36 in the ICC ODI World Cup. Australia are also one of the most successful team as they have lifted the accolade five times, which is more than any other team in ICC ODI World Cup history.

Adam Gilchrist scored 9619 runs in 287 ODIs at an average of 35.9 including 16 centuries and 55 fifties.
