4. Ishant Sharma ( 202 Wickets)
Ishant Sharma is the latest entrant to the 200 away-wicket club of Indian bowlers. The right-arm fast bowler accomplished the feat by dismissing Devon Conway in the World Test Championship final. He has played 61 Test matches outside India and has scalped 9 five-wicket hauls.
Ishant Sharma’s fierce bowling against England in the Lord’s 2014 Test match, was a sight to behold for Indian fans. The pacer picked up 7 wickets for 74 and carved his name on the honors board at the Lord’s cricket stadium. His performance helped India to cling on to its first Test victory at Lord’s in 28 years.
3. Zaheer Khan (207 Wickets)
Zaheer Khan is perhaps the best left-arm pacer to have ever played for India. He has 207 wickets in 54 Test Matches outside India and has bagged eight five-wickets hauls.
India’s tour of England in 2007 was probably the finest moment of Zaheer Khan’s Test career. The left-arm pacer scalped 18 wickets in the 3 Tests which led India to a 1-0 series win. He took 4 for 59 in the first innings at Trent Bridge, using the conditions perfectly to India’s cause. He was awarded the Man of the Series.
His performance in England earned him the Wisden Cricketer of The Year title in 2008.
