Arjit Kumar - Tuesday, Dec 09, 2025IND vs SA 1st T20I Records: In the first T20 International match between India and South Africa being played at the Barabati Stadium in Cuttack, Indian fast bowling legend Jasprit Bumrah has created a major record. The 32-year-old Bumrah has now become the second Indian bowler in history to take 100 wickets in the T20I format. Bumrah achieved this feat by dismissing young South African batsman Dewald Brevis, who was trying to stabilize the Indian innings after early setbacks.
Jasprit Bumrah, who has completed 101 wickets in 80 T20I matches, is the second Indian to reach this milestone. Before him, this record was achieved by left-arm fast bowler Arshdeep Singh against Oman in the Asia Cup 2025. Bumrah's achievement reflects his extraordinary consistency and class, especially in the faster format of T20 cricket.
