Indian pacer Ishant Sharma is at the top with 12 ducks from 39 innings. Another former pacer Ajit Agarkar in the second spot with 8 zero scores in 16 innings.
Batting legends like Sachin Tendulkar and Ricky Ponting also feature in the list with 4 ducks each. This list is dominated mostly by bowlers with the likes of Shane Warne, Brett Lee, Zaheer Khan, Shane Warne and RP Singh.
