Former Pakistan cricketer and Chitwan Rhinos pacer Sohail Tanvir, who took the first five-wicket haul of the tournament, sits on top of the list for players with most wickets in Nepal Premier League 2024.
Tanvir has led the chart right from the start of the season as the ex Pakistan pacer has added to the wickets column even in most games after the opener. However, the veteran's lead may not last for long with several players breathing down his neck.

Janakpur Bolts trio Harsh Thaker and Kishore Mahato as well as Rijin Dhakal also of Rhinos follow Tanvir on the list with nine wickets each to their names. Tanvir's better economy sees him retain his top spot.
Lalit Rajbanshi, Rohit Paudel, Scott Kuggeleijn and Brandon McMullen also feature in the top 10 leading wicket-takers chart. Here is a look at the current leaderboard for most wickets in NPL Season 1 after 18 matches:
