Top 10 run scorers for India in World Cup history

#6 Yuvraj Singh

Yuvraj Singh has been one of India’s biggest match winners with the bat in World Cups. The talismanic lefthander has been a heavy run scorer for India in the three World Cups he has played. Yuvraj proved to be India’s biggest match-winner in the 2011 World Cup where he scored 362 runs with one century and four half-centuries. Yuvraj produced some whirlwind knocks to win four man of the match awards and bagged the player of the tournament.

‘Yuvi’ dint have a bad outing in India’s disappointing 2007 World Cup campaign as the elegant southpaw scored a breezy 47 against Bangladesh and followed it up with 83 off just 43 balls against Bermuda.
