Kerala’s Jalaj Saxena continues on top of the highest wicket-takers list despite his side not making it into the knockouts. The right-arm off-break bowler picked 50 wickets in 13 innings, including five five-wicket hauls.

Shams Mulani from Mumbai is also on the list, picking 46 scalps in seven matches. Shahbaz Nadeem, who has played two Test matches for India, too finds a place on the list.

Saurashtra’s Dharmendrasinh Jadeja with 41 wickets is the only bowler on the list with a realistic chance of overtaking Saxena for the top spot in the list.
