Cricketers and their World Cup moments

I never imagined one ball would be spoken of a million times --MADAN LAL on the 1983 WC
There is no doubt that Richards's dismissal has been my moment of cricketing immortality. I bowled close to 10,000 balls in international cricket and never imagined that one ball would be spoken of a million times!
Years later, whenever Richards met me, he teased me lightheartedly: 'Stay away from me, maan! I don't want to see you!' Truth be told, Viv was one of the few batsmen that I feared bowling to.His was a massive and intimidating presence. Of course, I did ask my captain to give me an extended spell against him when he was hitting all of us all over the park; however, it wasn't so much from confidence but more from a typical Punjabi josh (vigour) that I could do the job.
I would not exchange that knock for anything --K SRIKKANTH on the 1983 WC
Nothing can beat those magical 38 runs at Lord's in 1983. There is an emotional attachment with that innings because of its overall impact on Indian cricket. I was settled and the spinners were just about to come, when I got out in the last over of Malcolm Marshall's spell. Yet I have no regrets as those are the most precious 38 runs of my life.
I never thought I'd cry --MS DHONI on the 2011 WC
People talk about money flowing into cricket and everything, and you will think that you will never see Indian players crying because they have a big contract... But money can never bring the immense joy of being part of a World-Cup-winning team. I never thought I would cry after a win, but we all did. And everybody means everybody ­ all the 15 players, the support staff and everyone else associated with the team.
