The ongoing match between India and Bangladesh is Mustafizur’s 118th T20I, and he now has 150 wickets to his name.
Left-arm pacer Mustafizur Rahman entered his name in the history books on Wednesday, September 24, by becoming the highest wicket-taker in T20Is for Bangladesh. Rahman needed one wicket in the ongoing Asia Cup 2025 Super 4s match between India and Bangladesh in Dubai to break Shakib Al Hasan’s record of 149 wickets, and he achieved the objective by dismissing India captain Suryakumar Yadav.
Surya was caught behind by Bangladesh’s stand-in captain Jaker Ali on the last ball of the 12th over.

In Bangladesh’s last Super 4s match against Sri Lanka, Mustafizur bowled four overs and picked up 3 wickets for 20 runs. The Bangladeshi team management and fans will hope that he will pick up more wickets in the ongoing match and restrict the Suryakumar Yadav-led side to as low a score as possible.
Abhishek scored 75
In the ongoing match, before Rahman removed Surya, Abhishek Sharma made headlines with his super show with the bat. The left-handed batter faced 37 balls and, with the help of 6 fours and 5 sixes, scored 75 runs. During his 75-run knock, he became the second Indian batter after Virat Kohli to score more than 200 runs in one edition of the Asia Cup T20Is and also broke the record for hitting the most sixes in the T20I format of the Asia Cup.
Abhishek has 17 maximums to his credit, and Afghanistan’s Rahmanullah Gurbaz is second on the list with 15 sixes in eight matches.
