T20 World Most Wickets
Highest wicket-taker in the T20 World Cup
T20 World Most Wickets: The Australian wickets have a naturally solid surface because the clay and soil of the tracks are so dry. Compared to English pitches, Australian tracks have more clay. The majority of pitches used in Oz include more than 50% clay. Let’s take a closer look at the top bowlers from the T20 World Cup.
Due to the higher clay content and less soil on the pitches there, the cricket ball interacts with the ground less frequently and picks up some extra speed as soon as it pitches on the wicket. Most significantly, the ball gives the track more bounce. Australia becoming a hub for pace and bounce.
