V.V.Richards
💡 Explanation:
Viv Richards was the first batsman to reach 1000 runs in World Cup cricket, achieving this milestone before Sachin Tendulkar (who was third) and another player in between. Richards' aggressive batting style and consistent performances in the 1975 and 1979 World Cups established this record. The question correctly identifies this sequence of achievements.
