Glenn McGrath
7/15 v Namibia (2003)

Glenn McGrath’s ICC Cricket World Cup record figures came in Australia’s penultimate group game of the 2003 edition against Namibia. After racking up a score of 301/6, Australia ran through Namibia’s batting line-up, shooting them out for just 45 runs for a 256-run win.

It was McGrath who set the ball rolling in the first over when he dismissed Namibia opener Jan-Berrie Burger. Six more wickets followed in his seven overs, as he finished with 7/15, including four maidens.
