This is not a very smart question as many cricketers havent got 500 test wickets, not just one "player". However to name one Ricky Ponting.
502 wickets! in just 356 matches! He is the best bowler there ever was in the history of cricket!and remember he has a billion more in total in tests and t20's

The salary of a professional cricket player varies between country to country and league to league. But the most essential component in a crickets salary is based upon the number of fours, sixes, wickets, strike rate and economy that a given player can perform. Basically the more runs that an individual can score in any innings will overall provide an increase in any future salary, vice versa for a bowler to have as many possible wickets in a match.
