The 'man of the match' from the 1992 World Cup match between India and West Indies, Anderson Cummins surprised everyone by returning to the ICC World Cup in the year 2007 as a member of the Canadian team.

Cummins made his World Cup debut for the West Indian side in the year 1992 and he was fairly successful in his maiden World Cup as he picked 12 wickets for West Indies.

The pacer then went on to represent Durham in 1993 and 1994 before making his World Cup debut for Canada at the age of 40. Canada played only three matches in the 2007 World Cup before being knocked out, which meant Cummins could not do much for his side.

He took two wickets in three games before his World Cup career ended with Canada.
