AFAIC it is. Scores of people could take the most wickets IMO, especially considering people want 5 bowlers. There's no absolute standouts these days besides maybe Murali. I'll be interested in which spinner takes the most wickets.
I reckon the leading wicket taker will be a real surprise. Someone like Andre Nel or Steve Magoffin lol.
He's having a bad year, averaging 40 or so. Didn't look that threatening against the Kiwis in the test a few days ago either.
He's not sooo good, but I don't think he'll get abused. VDW will likely get the nod because he's proven himself over a much longer period, and he's a better bat.
