Dubai: The ICC Champions Trophy has, over the years, seen spectacular individual performances from some of the finest cricketers in the game.
Though, as a team, Australia has stood tall and are now aiming for a hat-trick of titles, players from other nations have also stolen the thunder with their batting and bowling exploits.
Very few have managed to play in all the six editions of the tournament: Sanath Jayasuriya (Sri Lanka), Rahul Dravid (India), Ricky Ponting (Australia), Mark Boucher and Jacques Kallis (both South Africa) share this honour having played from 1998 to the last edition in 2009.
This edition will have three cricketers joining this illustrious group to have appeared in this tournament six times: Sri Lanka’s Kumar Sangakkara, Mahela Jayawardene and New Zealand’s Daniel Vettori.
