And the top position on this list isn’t taken by an Akram or a Muralitharan or a McGrath. It is a New Zealand pacer Chris Pringle who takes the top spot. This player played ODIs for 5 years from 1990-1995 before an ankle injury ended his promising career. During this period, New Zealand took 356 wickets and Pringle took 103 of those (28.93%).

Pringle averaged 23.87 in ODIs and a spell of 5/45 against England at Edgbaston in 1994 is his best bowling figures in ODIs.

During Pringle’s career, New Zealand had a couple of fine bowlers like Danny Morrison, Gavin Larsen, Chris Cairns and Chris Harris. However, Pringle’s knack for wickets helped him take a very strong percentage of the team’s wickets during his career.
