Three players from Sydney Sixers find a place on this list – the highest from any team.

Chris Morris and Tom Curran are the only players from the non-Australian setup to be placed on this list.

Jhye Richardson (from the above list), along with Cameron Gannon (Brisbane Heat), a USA bowler, are the only two players to pick more than one (two) 4-wicket hauls within a season.
