Jacques Kallis, 1998 (8 wickets) – In the first edition of Champions Trophy, it was the South African all-rounder Jacques Kallis who was the highest wicket-taker in the knockout tournament. Kallis in three games grabbed a total of eight wickets with best figures of 5/30 coming in the big final against West Indies.
Riding on a superb spell from the all-rounder, South Africa was able to dismiss West Indies on a score of 245 in the final and then chased it down to win the inaugural edition of the tournament, which was called as Wills International Cup at that time.
