Conventionally players in cricket have more runs than wickets in their career unless one is a pure bowler who bats at number 9, 10 or 11. Bowlers traditionally tend to have less runs in their career and more wickets due to the obvious fact that they are bowlers.
Here are 7 such players who have more wickets than runs in their ODI career (min.100 wickets):
7. Charl Langeveldt (South Africa)
Mt: 72 Runs: 73 Wkts: 100 BB: 5/39
South African fast bowler Charl Langeveldt was a good enough bowler to substitute for Shaun Pollock until Morne Morkel and Dale Steyn matured enough to spearhead the South African bowling on their own. Langeveldt was a nippy customer having all the skills required to succeed in the limited over format. He was also a prison warder at Drakenstein prison. He took 100 wickets in 72 matches and made 73 runs to go with those wickets.
