3 Indian bowlers with the highest number of maiden overs in ODIs

#1 Kapil Dev

Kapil Dev

Kapil Dev is unarguably the best all-rounder to represent India in international cricket. He is also one of the greatest match winners for India in the limited overs format. The Haryana Hurricane made his One-Day International debut in the year 1978 against Pakistan in their backyard.

The all-rounder dominated the headlines courtesy of his incredible performances both with the bat and the ball. His innings of 175 in 1983 was one of the best knocks ever played in limited overs cricket. The right arm fast bowler bagged 253 ODI scalps in the 225 games he played for India.

He bowled 235 maiden overs for India to complement his incredible economy rate of 3.72. He holds the Indian record for most maidens in ODIs. He also held the world record when he retired but has since been overtaken and currently is in the fifth spot.
