5 highest wicket takers in Test Cricket in 2017

#1: Nathan Lyon

Bangladesh v Australia - 2nd Test: Day 4

Nathan Lyon is the top wicket-taker of 2017 in Test, hauling an astounding 60 scalps with the Ashes series still going on.

He played 10 matches in 2017, with an innings best figures of 8/50. With Australia looking to win via a whitewash over England, Nathan Lyon will again be at the forefront in the 4th test of the ashes. Though currently ranked 9th in the test bowlers ranking, his tally in 2017 will have done neither his reputation nor his chances of going up the rankings any harm.
