Taking wickets in the most exoteric format of the game needs enormous crafts. Nowadays, the cricketing world is leaning towards batting more compared to bowling, as dead pitches are prepared very often for the shortest format of the game. But if you have variations in your armory, then being a bowler you can rule the game too by executing them precisely. Even on flat wickets, we have seen bowlers wreaking havoc with their exceptional piece of bowling. Bowlers are superior to batsmen because of the lack of help from the wicket. England faced Australia in the first-ever T20 game in 2004. As per the ICC data, 64 teams play T20 cricket at the highest level, to have a name on the list of the top 10 bowlers with the most wickets in women’s T20 is always a great achievement.
Pakistani off-break bowler Nida Dar is on the top of the chart of bowlers with the most wickets in Women’s T20, with 126 wickets in 130 matches. Guess, who is in the 2nd position, none other than Caribbean spinner Anisa Mohammed (125 wickets), followed by Aussie ace medium fast bowler Meghan Schutt, who has grabbed 124 wickets so far in the T20 cricket. It’s almost next to impossible that on a record list, you will not get an Indian, Deepti Sharma has made her way to the 8th position on the chart of the bowlers with the most wickets in Women’s T20s with 102 wickets in her name.
