Most Wickets in U19 World Cup

Since its inception in 1988, ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup has been a platform for young cricketers to show their talent and potential. The tournament has introduced the cricketing world to many modern-day great players like Virat Kohli, Graeme Smith, Brian Lara and Sanath Jayasuriya to name a few.


In its twelve editions, the Under-19 World Cup has seen the rise of a lot of promising bowlers like Mushtaq Ahmed, Trent Boult and Tim Southee. Moises Henriques and Greg Thompson share the top spot in the U19 World Cup most wickets list. Both of them have 27 wickets to their name, although Thompson has played six more matches than Henriques. 16 of Henriques’s 27 dismissals came in the 2006 Under-19 World Cup, where he was the leading wicket-taker.

ICC U19 Cricket World Cup 2012 - Semi Final: India v New Zealand


The fourteenth edition of the tournament, the 2022 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup is scheduled to take place in West Indies from 14 January 2022 to 5 February 2022. 16 teams full of talented youth players will fight for the title of the best Under 19 cricket team in the world. The competition between the bowlers to become the leading wicket-taker in the World Cup has been growing fierce. The fact is that the last edition had three top bowlers with the most wickets. With the West Indies pitches generally favourable for bowlers, it will be interesting to see which young bowler will announce his arrival to the big stage and top the U19 World Cup most wickets 2022 list.
