Indian fast bowling superstar Jasprit Bumrah made another historic achievement in his name as soon as he handled the ball in the first match of the 5-match T20 series against South Africa. As soon as Jasprit Bumrah took his first wicket, he achieved a feat in T20 International cricket which no Indian bowler could do before.
Jasprit Bumrah’s amazing feat
As soon as Jasprit Bumrah took his first wicket in this match, he completed 100 wickets in his T20 International career. With this, Bumrah became only the second bowler for India to take 100 or more wickets in T20 International. Before him, this feat was done by Arshdeep Singh. Bumrah achieved this milestone in only 81 T20 International matches, which is proof of his amazing consistency and lethal bowling.
The biggest thing is that Jasprit Bumrah has now become the first Indian bowler to have taken 100 or more wickets in all three international formats, Test, ODI and T20. Bumrah has also taken 234 wickets in Tests and 149 wickets in ODIs. Even in world cricket, the list of bowlers who have taken 100+ wickets in all three formats is very small and now Bumrah’s name has been added to the pride of Indian cricket.
