As far as winners of the tournament go, the pool is quite limited. Only three different teams have won the 12 completed editions thus far. Australia lead the way with seven titles, followed by England's four and New Zealand's one. The list of top run-scorers in the tournament's history, though, are a bit more varied.

Before the start of the 2025 edition, of the 18 players to score at least 700 runs, five were from teams that have never won the World Cup – two each from India and West Indies, and one from South Africa. The top six players on this list have over 1,000 World Cup runs, and the player at the top is the only one with over 1,500.

Can you name all 18, in four minutes' time? Once again, remember, this is before the start of the ongoing tournament.
