#3. Martin Guptill, 995 runs
Former New Zealand opener Martin Guptill holds a prestigious position as the third-highest run scorer for his country in ODI World Cups. Guptill made history during the 2015 World Cup by becoming the first Kiwi batter to score a double century in ODIs, an astonishing 237* off just 163 balls against the West Indies.
Notably, Guptill was the second-highest run scorer in the 2011 World Cup, underscoring his consistency on cricket’s grandest stage. In a total of 27 innings across various World Cups, this enigmatic strokemaker has accumulated 995 runs at an impressive average of 45.36.
