Since T20 Cricket was introduced more than two decades ago, the format was dominated by the batters, but as more T20 matches were held, bowlers became more accurate by sharpening their skills and by working on their variety. Bowlers became smarter and adjusted their lengths depending on the wickets and playing conditions to outfox the batters. The bowlers worked on bowling wicket-taking deliveries. In this piece, we discuss three bowlers who have racked up the most wickets in T20 cricket.

 The players mentioned in the list have showcased their skills time and again to get crucial breakthroughs for their sides that have changed the outcome of many matches. The bowlers mentioned in the list possess different skill sets depending on their strengths to bowl in different conditions and wickets, but their efficiency and consistency in taking crucial wickets have been second to none. We discuss these bowlers in detail:

1.Sunil Narine (574 wickets in 536 T20 games)

The former West Indian spinner has been among the most popular T20 players in the shorter format, as the spinner has played for different franchises in different T20 leagues globally. Narine has claimed 574 wickets in 536 T20 games in his T20 career so far.

He has this ability to change the length at the last moment by outsmarting the batters. Narine's variety enables him to take wickets on flat batting surfaces. The 37-year-old's bounce and flight are difficult to judge, making him a deadly option.

2.Imran Tahir (531 wickets in 428 T20 games)

The former South African leg spinner's deceptive length has troubled the batters. Tahir can outsmart the batters with his googlies and faster ones as the 46-year-old changes his length, keeping in mind a batter's strength.

Tahir doesn't turn the ball a long way, but his ability to attack the stumps and his ability to hold his line contain the runs and even help him get wickets. He has claimed 531 wickets in 428 T20 games. Tahir has the reputation of getting breakthroughs during the middle overs.

3.Shakib Al Hasan (492 wickets in 444 T20 games)

Undoubtedly amongst the most skilful off-spinners in modern-day cricket, Shakib's length is difficult to read due to his round-arm action. Shakib uses his wrists and fingers cleverly, enabling him to turn the ball.

His flight and his ability to use the popping crease cleverly enable him to land the ball in the right areas, helping him gain wickets consistently in the T20 format. His biggest strength is his ability to take wickets during pressure situations. The left-arm spinner has claimed 492 wickets in 444 T20 games in his career.

The Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) have confirmed their team for the 2025 Caribbean Premier League, paving the way for a thrilling campaign. Looking to recover from a patchy spell of performances in past seasons, TKR has retained a solid core and strengthened with proven overseas players to support their title quest. The revelation came during the CPL draft that took place on June 18, providing fans with a first-hand glimpse at the squads of all six teams.

Knight Riders have held on to T20 veterans like Kieron Pollard, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Nicholas Pooran, and Akeal Hosein to ensure leadership and experience do not get affected. Their foreign roster is comprised of the likes of Alex Hales, Mohammad Amir, Colin Munro, Usman Tariq, and Ali Khan, which provides them with strength and depth in all departments. The 2025 CPL tournament will start on 14 August and end with the final on 21 September, covering the length and breadth of the Caribbean and ending in Guyana.

This year's draft saw a special rule: the last three rounds were for West Indies Breakout League players. Every team has to have at least one such young player in every game, promoting youth development in the league. Trinbago Knight Riders reacted positively by selecting a number of promising youngsters to go along with their veteran group.

On Tuesday, June 17 (Indian time June 18), the Washington Freedom vs Los Angeles Knight Riders (WAS vs LAS) match will be played in the eighth match of the MLC 2025 at the Oakland Coliseum in Oakland.   

Andre Russell: Caribbean all-rounder Andre Russell isn't consistent enough with the bat at present. After scoring 57* and 38 in early May of the IPL 2025, Russell has scored 0, 15, 0, and 1 in the last four games, respectively. In this MLC 2025, Russell recorded one wicket in each of the two games, but also conceded 40+ runs in each game. 

Sunil Narine: Although Sunil Narine scored a duck and was wicketless in the last game for Los Angeles Knight Riders, he started the MLC 2025 with 27 off 13 balls after picking up one wicket.

Glenn Maxwell: Although Glenn Maxwell isn't in strong form, he scored a match-winning 38 not out off 20 balls in their last game with the help of three fours and three sixes. 

The 2025 edition of Major League Cricket kicked off on June 12, with a commanding performance by the San Francisco Unicorns, who thrashed Washington Freedom by a staggering 123 runs. As the tournament progresses, fans can look forward to seeing several top-tier T20 stars—fresh from their IPL stints—bringing their flair and explosive style to the MLC. With global attention turning to the American T20 scene, these players are set to dazzle once again as they don the jerseys of their respective MLC franchises.

In this feature, we spotlight five such players who are poised to deliver standout performances in the ongoing season. Having impressed with their consistency and match-winning efforts during the IPL, these cricketers are expected to carry that momentum into MLC 2025. Their recent form, combined with their experience in pressure situations, makes them ones to watch as the tournament unfolds. Let’s take a closer look at these potential game-changers.

5. Sunil Narine (LA Knight Riders)

The former West Indian cricketer is among the star players in the ongoing MLC. The 36-year-old performed well with the bat as well as with the ball in the recently concluded IPL season, scoring 246 runs with a strike rate of 170 and claiming 12 wickets with his clever off-break.

Sunil Narine will be captaining the team this season. LA Knight Riders would be looking to improve their performance from the last season, when they finished 5th.

4. Faf Du Plessis (Texas Super Kings)

The former South African skipper and batter played for Delhi Capitals during the 2025 IPL season and is captaining the Texas Super Kings in the ongoing MLC.

 Last season, Faf Du Plessis scored 520 runs for TSK with an average of 52.50 and will be aiming to perform well this season also. TSC performed decently last season and were third in the points table, but this time around, they would be aiming to win the trophy.

3. Heinrich Klaasen (Seattle Orcas)

Klaasen, who recently retired from International cricket, played a crucial role for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the recently concluded IPL 2025, scoring 487 runs in 13 innings. He is named as the captain of the Seattle Orcas during the ongoing MLC.

The former South African wicket-keeper batter could score just 97 runs in 7 MLC games last season, but this time around, the right-hander would be aiming to showcase his prowess with the bat.

2. Trent Boult (MI New York)

Boult bowled brilliantly for Mumbai Indians during the 2025 IPL season, claiming 22 wickets and finishing joint third in the wicket-taking list. The left-arm Kiwi pacer will be representing MI New York in the 2025 MLC.

Boult performed impressively during the 2023 MLC season, claiming 22 wickets, but had an ordinary 2024 season where he claimed 9 wickets. This time around, Boult's form would be crucial if the MI New York sees itself as a contender for winning the trophy.

1. Nicolas Pooran (MI New York)

The former West Indian cricketer, who retired from International cricket recently, looked in fine form for Lucknow Super Giants in the 2025 IPL season, scoring 524 runs in the entire season with a strike rate of 196.

He will be captaining the MI New York team and will be hoping his side improves its standing in the points table as in the last season MI New York team finished 4th in the table. Pooran's destructive hitting and his ability to take the game away form the opposition with his aggressive intent will be crucial for MI New York.

Dwayne Bravo, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) IPL 2025 mentor, posted a thrilling video on May 14, 2025, showing the arrival of West Indian players in India for the current tournament. The video, uploaded on Bravo's social media, shows Sunil Narine, Andre Russell, and Romario Shepherd, who arrived in India to play for their respective IPL teams. The IPL, which was suspended for a week following geopolitical tension before resuming on May 17, had the Caribbean stars joining it, adding another level of excitement to the league as it enters its decisive phase.

The camaraderie between the West Indian trio is brought out in the video, with Narine (KKR), Russell (KKR), and Shepherd (RCB) traveling together, reflecting their excitement about the IPL. Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) fans, especially, welcomed Shepherd's arrival, as his addition bolsters their team, which is currently 2nd with 16 points from 11 games. Shepherd's participation, however, could be curtailed by England's ODI series against the West Indies, which conflicts with the latter part of the IPL, including the playoffs.

A Boost to IPL Teams

Shepherd's addition is a huge fillip for RCB, who signed him for INR 1.5 crore prior to the 2025 season. His all-round ability, with a T20I batting strike rate of close to 140 and a bowling average of less than 28, brings depth to RCB's lineup as they chase their maiden IPL title. Narine and Russell's inclusion strengthens KKR, even though they are 6th-placed with 11 points from 12 games.

The West Indian players' arrival has generated hope among fans, with the IPL to gain from their panache. But their availability is a cause of concern because of international obligations, putting franchises' depth to the test as the tournament moves closer to the June 3 final.

Virat Kohli is widely considered one of the best batters in the history of the game. There have been hardly any instances where the legendary India batter has looked out of sorts or looked in trouble facing any bowler. But recently, Virat expressed who he thought the toughest bowlers in each format of cricket were. It is clear from his vast experience at the highest level that Kohli is expressing players who have historically challenged him. Kohli's choices show not only his technical understanding but also respect for the top-class bowlers who have tested him over the years.

Kohli identified England's James Anderson as the toughest bowler he has faced when asked about Test cricket. The 36-year-old batter mentioned that Anderson's strength lies in how he can swing the ball both ways and also reverse swing the ball, particularly in English conditions. Kohli also touched on how Anderson feels particularly difficult to face due to his experience and ability to control all areas of the game, making him a difficult opponent for any batter, especially when the ball is swinging off the pitch or moving in the air.

In addition to it, when the ace India player was asked question about T20 cricket, he identified Sunil Narine as the toughest bowler he has faced so far. The former RCB spinner praised Narine for being the toughest and also said that Narine in T20 cricket was difficult to face due to his variations. Kohli also noted that Narine’s control over his line, length, and pace changes forces batters to guess and adapt constantly, making him a formidable presence in T20 matches around the world.

Virat Kohli picks the toughest bowlers to face:

Test cricket - Jimmy Anderson.
ODIs - Malinga (Adil Rashid toughest spinner).

Lasith Malinga was toughest to face in ODIs

In ODI cricket, Virat Kohli identifies Lasith Malinga as one of the toughest pacers he has faced. He points to Malinga’s unorthodox action and his ability to generate late swing at high speeds as major challenges for any batter. Kohli acknowledges how Malinga's unpredictable deliveries, especially the toe-crushing yorkers, made him a unique threat during his prime. His pace, combined with movement, often left even top batters with little time to react, making him a standout bowler in ODI cricket.

When it comes to spin in ODIs, Kohli considers Adil Rashid to be one of the most challenging. He praises Rashid for cleverly disguising his variations while maintaining tight lines and lengths, which makes it difficult to read him. According to Kohli, Rashid’s consistency and subtle changes in pace limit scoring opportunities and keep batters under constant pressure. Kohli's selections reflect the high regard he has for bowlers who combine skill, strategy, and unpredictability—traits that elevate them in competitive international cricket across formats.

The 48th match of IPL 2025 was played between Kolkata Knight Riders and Delhi Capitals at Arun Jaitley Cricket Stadium in Delhi. In this match, Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Delhi Capitals by 14 runs. In this match, Kolkata Knight Riders had set a challenge of 205 runs in front of Delhi Capitals. In response, Delhi Capitals could only score 190 runs for the loss of 9 wickets in the stipulated 20 overs.

In this match, Kolkata Knight Riders lost the toss and were asked to bat first. The Kolkata team had a great start, and the pair of Sunil Narine and Rahmanullah Gurbaz added 48 runs in three overs. Rahmanullah Gurbaz played an innings of 26 runs in 12 balls, including five fours and a six. Apart from this, Sunil Narine scored 27 runs in 16 balls. Captain Ajinkya Rahane played an innings of 26 runs in 14 balls.

After this, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, who came to bat, played an innings of 44 runs in 32 balls with the help of three fours and two sixes. Venkatesh Iyer once again flopped and returned to the pavilion after scoring seven runs in 5 balls. But today Rinku Singh's bat worked. Rinku Singh played an innings of 36 runs in 25 balls, which included three fours and a six. Russell scored 17 runs in nine balls, and Rovman Powell scored 5 runs. For the Delhi Capitals team, Mitchell Starc took three wickets by scoring 43 runs in four overs. Apart from this, Vipraj Nigam and Axar Patel also got two wickets each. 

Delhi's batting flopped in the run chase

Delhi Capitals' team, which came out to chase the target of 205 runs, did not have a special start, and Abhishek Poral returned to the pavilion after scoring four runs on the second ball itself. Karun Nair could also score only 15 runs in 13 balls. And today, KL Rahul also got run out after scoring seven runs in five balls. But after this, Faf Duplessis and captain Axar Patel made a great partnership.

Duplessis scored 62 runs in 45 balls with the help of 7 fours and two sixes. On the other hand, Captain Axar Patel scored 43 runs in 23 balls, which included four fours and three sixes. Vipraaj Nigam tried his best to win the match by scoring 38 runs in 19 balls, but in the end, he also failed. From the Kolkata Knight Riders team, Sunil Narine took three wickets for 29 runs in four overs. Varun Chakaravarthy took two wickets for 39 runs in four overs. Anukul Roy, Vaibhav Arora, and Russell also got one wicket each.

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) secured a 14-run victory over Delhi Capitals (DC) in an exhilarating IPL 2025 Match 48 on April 29, 2025, at Arun Jaitley Stadium. At a posted trot of 204/9 from KKR, DC managed to chase 190 with all effort but ultimately fell short when the decisive bowling pressure came in from KKR. Let's check why DC lost this game.

The first reason is that DC could not defend a competitive total, which was 204/9, by way of poor bowling and no breakthroughs made at all. KKR's batsmen, led by Raghuvanshi (66), Rinku Singh, and Sunil Narine, had almost demoralized the bowling attack of Mitchell Starc (3/43) and Vipuraj Nigam (2/41) with their onslaught during the powerplay and the middle overs thanks to 44 off 32 deliveries from Angkrish Raghuvanshi and 36 off 25 balls from Rinku Singh. DC had some low contributions from its bowlers, such as Mitchell Starc (3/43) and Vipuraj Nigam (2/41). While DC had not come to chase a target of that magnitude, there were questions regarding KKR's attunement to Indian conditions in getting a score such as that. 

A perplexing fight, though, with the quick-fire abs of Axar Patel (43 off 23) and Vipuraj Nigam (38 off 19), with some fight back by turning pretty much—I feel it's only towards the end that they're not going to be able to up the ante—caused KKR's death bowling - Varun specifically (2/39) and Vaibhav Arora (1/19)—and sealed an interesting but doomed run chase.

Also Read: IPL 2025, Match 48: Delhi Capitals vs Kolkata Knight Riders Full Match Highlights

1. Inconsistent Top-Order Performance

While Faf du Plessis offered a good start with a stylish 62 off 45 balls, there was no support from the rest of Delhi's top-order batting. The early wickets and lack of solid partnerships in the powerplay put pressure on the middle order to try and repair the slow start. This inconsistency at the top hindered the momentum of the Capitals in a chase of over 200, as they found themselves in a catch-up for the rest of their innings.

2. Kolkata's Bowling Impact in Crucial Moments

KKR bowlers at key moments worked with a will for Sunil Narine (3/29) to wrest key breakthroughs. Narine broke the middle order's back while containing runs strongly in the middle. Varun Chakravarthy and Vaibhav Arora lent timely wickets and disciplined spells, all putting a wrench in Delhi's efforts to accelerate, especially from the moment the asking rate leaped sharply in the death overs.

3. Expensive Bowling Despite Wicket-Taking

Delhi bowlers Mitchell Starc and Vipraj Nigam took two very vital wickets but gave away runs at an expensive rate-Starc 43 runs and Nigam 41 runs. Those overcosting Delhi would allow KKR to put up the stiff 204/9 run target. The inability to control the scoring, especially in the death overs, meant that Delhi’s batters had a stiffer target than ideal, ultimately proving too much to overcome despite a strong fightback.

In Match 48 of IPL 2025, held at Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi, KKR had to display genuine grit to secure a 14-run win over DC on April 29, 2025. Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) scored 204/9, a total that Delhi Capitals (DC) could only chase down to 190/9 after a spirited attempt. Sunil Narine contributed significantly to KKR's cause with an all-around performance that gave him the Player of the Match award and enhanced KKR's playoff possibilities.

Kolkata Knight Riders Innings

KKR, electing to bat first, set a target of 205 runs, finishing at 204/9. Angkrish Raghuvanshi gave a steady start with 44 off 32 balls, while Rinku Singh kept the momentum going with an explosive 36 off 25 balls. Despite the fall of regular wickets, Narine added impetus with a quickfire 27 runs off 16 balls, injecting momentum despite regular wickets. Mitchell Starc (3/43) and Axar Patel (2/27) led with impressive contributions from Vipuraj Nigam (2/41) but ensured a fighting total on a batting-friendly Delhi pitch, or at least, KKR's last bits, including Andre Russell (15 off 8).

Delhi Capitals Innings

The DC managed a good fight but in the end got knocked out for 190 at the loss of 9 wickets, which made the distance separating them from victory just 14 runs. Faf du Plessis was the star with 62 off 45 balls, bringing DC into the game. There was also Axar Patel scoring 43 off 23 balls toward the end. Vipuraj Nigam added 38 off 19 balls at the tail end, but the middle order went crumbling under pressure. The hosts' bowlers Sunil Narine (3/29) and Varun Chakaravarthy (2/39) were ably supported by Vaibhav (1/19), restricting DC despite their effort on a high-scoring track.

DC vs KKR: Post Match Reactions

Andre Russell (KKR): Russell celebrates while on his birthday, saying, “Team members wanted to give this win as a cross to me because nothing beats a win as an awesome IPL gift!” He praised an over in which all things began to change rapidly following two wickets, of Warden and then of du Plessis: “Sunil, having one great over, instilled the momentum; the bowlers, with Russell taking yorkers and K. Chakaravarty's leg spin, bowled so well against Delhi, the new 15-to-20-run differential inflicted on us during the power play proven to be so heavily over."

Axar Patel (Delhi Capitals Captain): Feeling that they gave 15 or so more runs in the powerplay and misreading the final chase, Patel said, "Vipul came in and made 38 off 19, and I subsequently took up the 43 off 23 from there." As she had felt any close losses being painful this year, she sighed of needing a partnership to chase 205 on that surface.

Ajinkya Rahane (KKR Captain): Rahane, who had a mild knock he had seen toed into, was full of praise, saying, "I will be fine; Sunil bowled two good overs post-13 overs and removed Rahul Tewatia and Vipul." From the other side, he rued how he might probably have praised the top score of 204: "Very honestly, that was 15 runs short. In tight-spell-killing attacks, Russell's yorker-stuffed over and Anukul Roy were key on that track."

Sunil Narine (Player of the Match): Praising the team, he said, "Gurbaz's early 20s, Rahane's 30s, and Rinku's 36 set the tone." About his bowling effort, he said, I struggled early but backed myself to return, nailing key overs to dismiss du Plessis and Patel - happy to contribute!"

Drama Begins Before the First Ball! Narine’s Bat Gets Special Attention

In a match for the ages during an IPL 2025 fixture on April 15, the Punjab Kings engineered one of the greatest upsets in tournament history by defending a record-low total of 111 against the perennially high-flying Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). It was not all about the play on the field, though. A strange pre-match incident relating to Sunil Narine's bat check turned viral and served to add another layer of drama to an already dramatic evening.

As the batsmen prepared to pursue Punjab's humble total, Sunil Narine found himself involved in a routine bat-check by the umpires. The whole scenario, which was caught on camera, involved the officials examining Narine's bat meticulously. Social media viewers promptly converted the incident into a meme session, facetiously captioning it "Sunil Narayan ki chori pakdi gayi"—implying in jest that he may have been attempting to hide a favorable bat.

While the bat was declared legal and Narine stepped into the field, what ensued was much more surprising. Pursuing only 112 runs, KKR began well and were sailing at 71/3. But then suddenly came a dramatic collapse. KKR lost 7 wickets for a mere 24 runs, getting bowled out for 95 in 15.1 overs. Punjab's bowlers, particularly Yuzvendra Chahal (4/28) and Marco Jansen (3/17), bowled masterfully to write history

From bat checks to batting collapses—this match had everything, and that is why once again IPL has proved to be the most entertaining cricket league in the world.
