Arshdeep Singh, left-arm seamer, became India's highest wicket-taker in T20 Internationals on Wednesday, surpassing Yuzvendra Chahal's tally of 96 victims in the opening game against England.
Arshdeep, who made his T20I debut in 2022, reached the milestone in his 61st match, 19 games less than Chahal's 80 appearances in the shortest format.
The 25-year-old has played almost every T20I for India, with a career economy rate of 8.32 and two four-wicket hauls. His best T20I score is 4 for 9.
On Wednesday, he dismissed Phil Salt with a steep delivery that climbed awkwardly on the batter, tying Chahal, and then dismissed Ben Duckett to outshine the Haryana leg-spinner.
