India's greatest fast bowler and all-rounder captained India to their first Cricket World Cup victory in 1983, hitting a remarkable 175 not out against Zimbabwe in a qualifying match when India appeared certain to be eliminated -- a knock that turned the tournament around. Kapil Dev took 434 Test wickets at 29.64 while scoring 5,248 Test runs at 31.05, making him the first player in history to take 400 Test wickets and score 5,000 Test runs.
