A good spell can change a T20I match in just a few overs. And New Zealand have had bowlers who know how to make that happen. That specifically means their bowlers dominate the wicket-taking charts in the shortest format. So…
Ish Sodhi leads the all-time wicket-taking charts for New Zealand in men's T20Is with 165 wickets in 135 innings, narrowly surpassing fast bowler Tim Southee, who claimed 164 wickets in 123 innings. Mitchell Santner ranks third with 144 wickets and stands as the only Kiwi bowler with over 50 T20I wickets as captain.
Southee holds the record for the best bowling figures by a New Zealander with 5 for 18 against Pakistan and is the only Blackcaps bowler with two T20I five-wicket hauls. Sodhi is the fastest New Zealand bowler to 100 T20I wickets, reaching the milestone in 78 innings.
