Summary
Information about city of birth could not be found for around 100 players but those were mostly from Associate nations like Canada, Bermuda, Netherlands and Scotland, so these omissions and/or mistakes will not make a real difference to the overall rankings.And like Sydneysiders taking their team close to winning yet another World Cup. In England this year, David Warner and Steven Smith piled up the runs while Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins took wickets like machines.Sydney has a history of producing players who rise to the occasion. Three of Australia's four World Cup-winning captains - Allan Border, Steve Waugh and Michael Clarke - are from there, and there have been a lot of remarkable contributions from players like Mark Waugh, Jason Gillespie, Starc, Smith and Warner.An analysis of over 1850 players from 133 World Cup squads through the history of the tournament places Sydney on top of the list of cities with the best overall bowling and batting performances in World Cup history. Then there are cities like Wellington and Port Elizabeth that have really good bowlers but not enough quality batsmen.The eight cities in the graphic below have the most balanced teams - with players who have performed reasonably well in World Cups.You can see that Auckland, Christchurch, Cape Town and Johannesburg have a lot of big names but they don't have the star-studded line-ups that Sydney and Lahore boast of.
