Team India, led by Suryakumar Yadav, leveled the series at 1-1 on November 2. The first T20I was washed out due to rain, and Australia won the second match. With two games remaining, the series outcome is still undecided.
India’s leading pacer Jasprit Bumrah is close to achieving a significant milestone in T20 internationals. He currently has 98 wickets, placing him joint-second among Indian bowlers alongside Hardik Pandya, who is absent from this series due to injury.
Arshdeep Singh leads Indian bowlers with 104 T20I wickets and is the only Indian pacer to have crossed the 100-wicket mark. If Bumrah takes two more wickets, he will join this elite group alongside Arshdeep.
“Now that will be something special,” referring to Bumrah joining Arshdeep in the 100-wicket club.
With the T20 World Cup three months away, Bumrah and Arshdeep could form a formidable bowling duo, especially in home conditions.
