Most Wickets

Cyprus T10 League Highest Wicket-takers

Ravi Kumar of Cyprus Moufflons CC has emerged as the highest wicket-taker after Day 2 of the Cyprus T10 League 2020. He has taken 6 wickets in the four matches he has played with a best effort of 3/8. Kumar also has an exceptional economy rate of 4.25.

Waqas Akhtar of Punjab Lions CC and Waqar Ali of Cyprus Moufflons CC are the second most successful bowlers with 4 wickets each. The former occupies the second spot on the list due to his superior strike rate of 7.50.

Akhtar claimed all his four scalps in a sensation spell of 4/17, the best figures of the tournament so far. But he has been slightly on the expensive side with an economy rate of 8.80.

Ali has a best bowling effort of 3/12 and has been quite economical, conceding just 6.85 runs per over.

With a significant number of matches yet to be played, all the bowlers would have plenty of opportunities to overhaul Ravi Kumar at the top of the highest wicket-takers list of the Cyprus T10 League 2020.
