Bumrah Makes History, Surpassing Ashwin and Arshdeep to Set a Stunning Record

Jasprit Bumrah has become the leading wicket-taker for India in T20 World Cup history, surpassing Ashwin and Arshdeep Singh.

In the Super-8 match of the T20 World Cup held in Ahmedabad between India and South Africa, star Indian bowler Jasprit Bumrah achieved an impressive milestone by becoming the highest wicket-taker for India in T20 World Cup history. In a stellar performance, Bumrah bowled four overs, giving away just 15 runs and claiming three wickets, positioning himself atop the list of Indian bowlers in this prestigious tournament.

Bumrah's remarkable feat saw him eclipse his teammates Arshdeep Singh and Ravichandran Ashwin, who have both taken 33 wickets in T20 World Cup matches thus far. Arshdeep Singh has reached this milestone in a shorter span, showcasing his potential as a young bowler. Meanwhile, veteran Ashwin has constantly troubled batsmen with his vast experience and skill set, which includes various bowling techniques.

Also featured in the list of top wicket-takers is Hardik Pandya, sitting in fourth place with 29 wickets. As an all-rounder, Pandya has contributed significantly to the team's success by claiming crucial wickets at pivotal moments during matches. Bumrah's achievement not only highlights his individual talent but is also vital for India's aspirations in the ongoing T20 World Cup.
