by Wisden Staff 10 minute play

In this quiz, you have to name the fifty bowlers with the most wickets in the history of men’s ODI World Cups.

50-over World Cups are still the pinnacle of white-ball cricket. The bowlers with the most wickets in the history of the competition are some of the greatest names ever to play the sport. Leading the standings, and the only player with more than 70 wickets, is a legendary Australia seam bowler, who’s metronomic accuracy helped propel Australia to three consecutive World Cup titles.

He’s the first of ten Australian names on the list, the most representation of any country. Leading the spin entrants by far is the second player on the list, a legend of Sri Lanka cricket.
