History

For a long period of time prior to the क्रिकेट विश्वचषक, awards were handed out to players for their performance in each match. These player's were named the Man of the Match. This trend continued into the क्रिकेट विश्वचषक. To receive a Man of the Match award in the final generally meant that one had put up a match-winning performance for their team and, in essence, won their team the World Cup.

Since १९९२, at the end of the World Cup, one player is declared as "मालिकावीर".
