Our T20 International (T20I) ratings take into account all matches from the first T20I match on February 17, 2005 till the below mentioned
last update date. Most of our ratings are dynamic, and as new matches are played, the rating of earlier bowlers may change if current
bowlers set new benchmarks. Brief explanation of the ratings is given before each section
(Detailed Explanation).
So, here are the Top 10 Fast bowlers with most Wickets Per Inning in T20Is.
