Explanation

Australia's Glenn McGrath holds the record for most wickets in Cricket World Cup history with 71 wickets across four tournaments (1996, 1999, 2003, 2007). His accurate line-and-length bowling made him lethal in World Cup matches. Wasim Akram and Imran Khan (both Pakistan) are legendary fast bowlers but have fewer World Cup wickets, while Sri Lanka's Chaminda Vaas (who led in 2003 with 23 wickets) also has fewer overall than McGrath's cumulative record.
