In this quiz, you’ll have to name the players with the most wickets in men’s international cricket in the 2010s. Can you?

The period under consideration is January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2019. We’ve set the cut-off to a minimum of 250 wickets in international cricket, meaning a total of 29 players make the cut.

At the top of the lot is an Indian with 564 wickets. He’s followed by a couple of Englishmen and New Zealanders, who make up the top five. The list features a variety of names, most of whom are active in the game at the moment. However, also keep in mind the players who made an impression in the first half of the decade before retiring – there are a fair few of them.

All the best!
