Top 5 ODI wicket takers in 2016

 Josh Hazlewood
 Josh Hazlewood: Australia’s unsung hero

#1 Adam Zampa

Adam Zampa
Adam Zampa has become one of the best for Australia

The leggie is the third Australian name in the list and tops the wicket charts for 2016 in ODIs with 30 wickets in 19 games at an average of 27.8. He has not had a single four-wicket or five-wicket haul this year and his best is 3/16.

However, Zampa has been one consistent bowler for Aussies in a poor year for them. His variations and wicket taking ability had made him a favourite in Dhoni's Rising Pune Super Giants franchise in the IPL. He carried on that form for Australia and did quite well in all series he figured for them.

Zampa had 10 wickets in the Tri-Series in the Windies and 9 in Lanka before taking two in the first ODI against New Zealand to overtake Hastings in the wicket takers list for the year. He has the opportunity to add a few more to his tally in the remaining two games.
