Arshdeep Singh breaks Bhuvneshwar Kumar's long-standing T20I record, inches close to world record

During the second international fixture against New Zealand in Christchurch, India fast bowler Arshdeep Singh captured his 38th wicket of the calendar year by removing Glenn Phillips, thereby eclipsing the previous national landmark held by Bhuvneshwar Kumar. This achievement elevates the left-arm seamer to the top of the Indian charts for annual T20I dismissals, surpassing Kumar's total of 37 from 2022 as well as his own prior tallies and marks set by teammates like Varun Chakaravarthy and Axar Patel.

Furthermore, this milestone places the Indian quick level with Sri Lanka's Wanindu Hasaranga and positions him just one dismissal away from matching the global calendar-year record currently held by Ireland's Josh Little.
