Most Wickets by Bowlers in ICC T20 World Cup 2024: The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 is underway in the West Indies and the USA. Though T20 cricket is largely recognised for being a batting-friendly format, it is bowlers whose performance often decides the outcome of the match. At the T20 World Cup 2024, the wickets in the USA were spicy and the wickets in the West Indies were slow and thus bowlers could enjoy the sluggish nature of the pitches. Afghanistan’s Fazalhaq Farooqi had the best tournament with  17 wickets in his bag. India's Arshdeep Singh joined him with a pair of wickets in the final match. Jaspreet Bumrah makes it into the top three with 15 wickets.
