ICC Cricket World Cup organised in every four years. Centuries played a very crucial role in Cricket for winning matches. Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar holds the record for most centuries in International cricket as well as in Cricket World cup. Tendulkar had six centuries with his name in the span between 1992 and 2011.
Interestingly, top players in the list of most centuries in the Cricket world cup have been retired from International cricket. It is expected that players like Kohli and Dhawan will jump in this list after 2019 World Cup.
