I did not grow up with wicketcricket, so I ask this question to get a better intuition for the game.

Are there some bowlers who specialize in maidens, while others who take higher number of wickets at perhaps the risk of a high economy rate? Bowling maidens and taking wickets are obviously both very good results for a bowler, but it doesn't seem like the two always go hand-in-hand and sometimes the two objectives might work against each other.
