Who among the following has recently scripted history by becoming the first Indian cricketer to secure 100 wickets and 1000 runs in T20 Internationals ?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: A

Explanation

Hardik Pandya scripted history in December 2025 by becoming the first Indian male cricketer to achieve the double of 100 wickets and 1,000 runs in T20 Internationals (T20Is). He reached the 100-wicket milestone by dismissing Tristan Stubbs during the 3rd T20I against South Africa in Dharamsala.

  • Global Significance: Pandya is the first fast-bowling all-rounder in the world to reach this landmark. Other cricketers in this elite club, such as Shakib Al Hasan (Bangladesh) and Mohammad Nabi (Afghanistan), are all spinners.
  • Indian Context: While Deepti Sharma was the first Indian (female) to reach 100 wickets and 1,000 runs in T20Is (achieving the feat in early 2023), Pandya is the first from the men's team to do so.
  • Other Options: Ravindra Jadeja (who retired from T20Is in 2024) and Axar Patel have not reached the 100-wicket mark in this format.
