List of bowlers who have taken 300 or more wickets in Test cricket (original) (raw)

Taking 300 or more wickets across a playing career is considered a significant achievement in Test cricket. The feat, first accomplished by Englishman Fred Trueman in 1964, has only been achieved by 36 cricketers in the history of the game as of March 2022. Six players each from Australia and India, five each from England and South Africa, four from New Zealand and the West Indies and three each from Pakistan and Sri Lanka have crossed the 300-wicket mark in Tests. Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Ireland and Zimbabwe are yet to see a player reach the 300 mark.
