List of Twenty20 International records

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Twenty20 International (T20I) is a form of Twenty20 cricket in which each team plays a single innings with a maximum of twenty overs. The matches are played between international teams recognized by the International Cricket Council (ICC). The first T20I was played on 17 February 2005 between Australia and New Zealand, with the first ICC T20 World Cup held in 2007. As of February 2025, 99 nations feature in T20I team rankings released by ICC.[1] The article lists the various records for men's T20Is.[2]

Babar Azam (left) and Rashid Khan are the highest run-scorer and wicket-taker in T20Is respectively.

  1. Hasaranga holds the fastest record in terms of balls taken - 2035 balls, (Rashid Khan - 2098 balls)
  2. Cricinfo lists Buttler as having made one catch as a fielder whilst being the designated keeper,[87] whilst their description of the catch says he was the wicket-keeper at the time.[88] Their wicket-keeping totals (both catches and total dismissals) do not include this dismissal and if this catch is counted towards his wicket-keeping total it gives him a total of 76 catches and 91 dismissals, which matches other sources.[89][90][91]
