Original post Top order (1-7) wickets percentage of great Test bowlers
VAAS WAG. Doesn't get enough credit for the achievements, considering most of his hard yards were put on non-responsive SC wickets.So KUDOS for the 77%.We can't forget Murali got a good bulk of the wickets alongside Vaas.
This is a humongous effort from Vaasy
Akram uncharacteristically have a lower wicket percentage of top 1-7 wickets for a fast bowler.
