<h2><strong>South Africa's inning:</strong></h2>



<p>The hosts did not have a good start as Temba Bavuma departed in the first over itself. Skipper, Quinton de Kock, and experienced Faf du Plessis didn?t let the English bowlers took control of the innings. Both the batsmen sewed a good 80 runs stand before the second wicket.&nbsp;</p>



<p>De Kock (30 from 23) went to the hut off Chris Jordan However, du Plessis remained in the middle to set a good total.</p>



<p>Sam Curran got du Plessis out when the protea just crossed his fifty.</p>



<p>In the quota of full 20 overs, South Africa managed a good total on the board, 179-6 (20 overs). Faf du Plessis (58 from 40), Quinton de Kock (30 from 23), van der Dussen (37 off 28) and Klaasen (20 off 12) contributed to the 179 runs total.</p>



<p>Sam Curran picked 3 scalps while Jofra Archer, Tom Curran, and Chris Joran got one each.</p>



<h2><strong>England's Inning:</strong></h2>



<p>England skipper, Eoin Morgan made a drastic change by promoting Jos Buttler to the opening slot while Jhonny Bairstow came at 4.</p>



<p>The chase was not going to be easy for the Englishmen, their openers departed inside 5 overs putting the lineup on the back foot.</p>



<p>The T20I sensation Dawid Malan could not stay in the crease for a long as he went to the hut after scoring 19 runs. Johnny Bairstow from one end took complete charge, getting close to the target.</p>



<p>The turning point in the chase came when Beuran Hendricks came to bowl the 17th overs. Skipper Eoin Morgan and Jhonny Bairstow smashed the protea bowler to 28 runs all over the park, including 3 wides.</p>



<p>The chase was now completely under England?s control. Johnny Bairstow finished the innings with back to back boundaries with a four and a maximum. With these boundaries, England wins the game by 5 wickets and with four balls to spare.</p>



<p>Bairstow was awarded Man of the Match for his clinical innings of 86 from 48 balls.</p>

Virat and Co. would try to win the second encounter to seal the series and keep momentum forward. However, the Aussies will spare no efforts to comeback after two losses against the visitors.</p>



<p>Jadeja?s concussion substitute evoked many experts against the rule, saying this is the misuse of the regulations. Concussion substitute, Yuzvendra Chahal turned the game into the favor of visitors and surely making his comeback to the side.</p>

Australia vs India: Match Preview, Prediction, Playing 11, Dream11 Fantasy Tips Aus vs Ind 2nd T20I

australia-vs-india-match-preview-prediction-playing-11-dream11-fantasy-tips-aus-vs-ind-2nd-t20i

<p>India is currently taking on Sri Lanka at Dharamshala?s Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in the third and last T20I of the ongoing series between the two sides. The Blues have won the first two matches of the series and if they win tonight as well, it would be an absolute whitewash. Indian captain Rohit Sharma gave a tremendous performance both in captaincy and with the bat. But more important than that, he broke an untouchable record and thus made history.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Rohit Sharma has been one of the most important players in the Indian Senior team for quite some time now across all formats. He is one of the best not only in India but in the whole world. According to ICC rankings, he is currently 6th in Test Cricket, 3rd in ODI and 11th in T20I which speaks loads about his current form.&nbsp;</p>



<p>But what Rohit Sharma is mostly known for is his brilliant captaincy abilities. Rohit made his captaincy debut with IPL franchise Mumbai Indians back in 2013 and won the title with them in his maiden captaincy season. The rest is, as they say, history.&nbsp;</p>



<p>He went on to win 5 IPL trophies with Mumbai Indians, the highest ever in IPL history, and seems to have no plans to stop yet. The closest to him is Mahendra Singh Dhoni with 4 IPL trophies. But given their age difference, Rohit will play for many more years while Dhoni?s days as captain are numbered.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Well, the Indian captain has proved his consistency once again at the International level as he became the most capped player in T20I history. He has now played 125 International T20 Matches which is the highest ever. Previously the record was held by Pakistan?s Shoaib Malik.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>Here?s a list of the most capped players in T20I:-</h2>



<ol><li>Rohit Sharma (India) - 125 matches</li><li>Shoaib Malik (Pakistan) - 124 matches</li><li>Mohammad Hafeez (Pakistan) - 119 matches</li><li>Eoin Morgan (England) - 115 matches</li><li>Mahmudullah (Bangladesh) - 113 matches</li></ol>



<p>Seeing the other players on this list, it can be estimated that Rohit will be holding this record for a pretty long time until some other players emerge. But that will take a lot of time.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Rohit Sharma made his T20I debut for India back in 2007 and it has now been over 15 years that he has been at the top consistently. He deserves a great deal of respect and appreciation for that.&nbsp;</p>

Rohit Sharma becomes the most capped player ever in T20I - Creates History

rohit-sharma-becomes-the-most-capped-player-ever-in-t20i-creates-history

<p>Sixes have always been an important aspect of a T20I match. No matter what the situation of the innings is, or what phase the game is in, a big hit over the fence is all a team needs to gain the upper hand. Several batsmen all across the globe have been seen helping their team get over the line courtesy of some wonderful big hitting.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The six-hitting ability is what makes a batsman useful to the side during a steep run chase, or even post a big total by spring quick runs in the middle and death overs. Over the years, the shortest format of cricket has seen several such batsmen mastering the art of hitting the ball into the stands at will.&nbsp;</p>



<p>It's time for us to take a look at the top three batsmen with the most sixes in T20 internationals so far.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>3. Chris Gayle (124 sixes)</h2>

<p>At no.3 in the list of top 6 hitters in T20Is is none other than the universe boss Chris Gayle. The left-handed hard-hitting opening batsman has smashed a total of 124 sixes in the 75 innings that he's featured in T20Is.&nbsp;</p>



<p>His strike rate has been that of 137.89 along with an average of around 28. The West Indian was also the first man to hit a century in the history of T20Is.</p>



<h2>2. Rohit Sharma (164)</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/07/rohit-sharma-compressed.jpg" alt="Rohit Sharma" class="wp-image-92052" width="1040" height="653"/><figcaption>Rohit Sharma</figcaption></figure>



<p>At no.2 in the list is the Indian skipper Rohit Sharma. Sharma who is widely known for his effortless sixes and destructive batting style has smashed a total of 164 sixes in the 124 innings of T20Is for his team.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The right-hander has had a strike rate of 140.26 with an average of 32.28. He is the player with the most centuries in the history of T20I cricket so far.</p>



<h2>1. Martin Guptill (170 sixes)</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2020/01/Martin-Guptill.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-70745" width="1040" height="640"/><figcaption>Martin Guptill</figcaption></figure>



<p>The player with the most sixes in the history of T20I cricket so far is kiwi opener Martin Guptill. The right-handed tall batsman has smashed a total of 170 sixes in the 114 T20I innings that he's played so far.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The hard-hitting opener had a strike rate of close to 136 along with an average of 32. He has scored two centuries in his T20I career too.</p>

Top 3 Six hitters in Men's T20I history

<p>T-20 is considered to be the most aggressive and entertaining format of cricket. Supporters and spectators of both the teams want it to rain a lot of fours and sixes. However, sometimes the complete dominance of one team over the other leaves the audience completely disappointed where we are left with some stats, creating records at the same time as huge margins between the final scores of both teams.</p>



<p>Here is India's top-3 highest margin of victory in T-20Is</p>



<h2>1. India vs Ireland 2018. Margin 143 runs</h2>

Pakistan started the year with a three-match test series against Australia but they failed to win the series as their key players didn't perform well against Australian Pacers on the fast and bounce wicket in <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/?s=Australia" rel="nofollow">Australia</a>.</p>



<p>However, As the <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/t20/t20-world-cup/icc-mens-t20-world-cup-2024/" rel="nofollow">ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 </a>is scheduled to start on June 01, 2024, in the West Indies and USA, Pakistan will be playing some bilateral T20I series before the tournament to test their bench strength.

<p>Pakistan Super League 2024 is going to start from February 17, 2024, to March 18, 2024 therefore Pakistan National Cricket Team will not play any bilateral series between these months. However, After the PSL 2024 Pakistan will be playing the five-match T20I series against New Zealand on their home.</p>

Pakistan National Cricket Team Schedule 2024, Upcoming T20Is, ODIs and Test Matches | Pakistan Cricket Schedule, Fixtures

pakistan-national-cricket-team-schedule-2024-upcoming-t20is-odis-and-test-matches-pakistan-cricket-schedule-fixtures

<p>With the change in colours of the ball and clothing, India, mostly with a different set of personnel, will be keen to live up to its World champion’s tag in the five-match T20I series against England, dubbed as ‘SKYball’ vs ‘Bazball,’ and redeem some pride following its Test series debacle in home and away against New Zealand and Australia respectively.</p>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>India’s winning streak in the shortest format of the game has seen them wrap up every bilateral T20 series since August 2023 and captain Suryakumar Yadav will look to build on his new-look team’s success before their co-hosted T20 World Cup in February 2026.</p>
<p></p>
<p>The focus will also be on coach Gautam Gambhir, who has faced some criticism after the two Test series defeats. The doughty Delhiite, who coached India to T20 series wins over Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh, has captained and mentored Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to title wins in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and will look forward to his familiar turf and format to guide India to some positive results and revive his credibility.</p>
<p></p>
<p>The contests between both sides have been closely matched, with India winning 13 of their 24 matches in the shortest format, including the last one at the semifinals of the T20 World Cup 2024 in Guyana.</p>
<p>England have beaten India in the remaining 11 T20 games.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Although the records says that both team have almost equal chances for being winner </p>
<p>But if we see slightly deep the chances for Indian team will be more to win series because of their previous few series records state that Indian have more chances of being sealing this series.</p>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>Teams (from)</p>
<p>India (from): Suryakumar Yadav (capt.), Sanju Samson (wk), Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya, Rinku Singh, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Axar Patel (v-capt.), Harshit Rana, Arshdeep Singh, Mohammad Shami, Varun Chakaravarthy, Ravi Bishnoi, Washington Sundar, Dhruv Jurel (wk).</p>
<p>England: Jos Buttler (capt.), Ben Duckett, Phil Salt (wk), Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone, Jacob Bethell, Jamie Overton, Gus Atkinson, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood.</p>
<p></p>
<p>First T20: Wednesday, January 22 at 7pm (13:30 GMT) – Eden Gardens, Kolkata</p>
<p>Second T20: Saturday, January 25 at 7pm (13:30 GMT) – MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai</p>
<p>Third T20: Tuesday, January 28 at 7pm (13:30 GMT) – SCA Stadium, Rajkot</p>
<p>Fourth T20: Friday, January 31 at 7pm (13:30 GMT) – MCA Stadium, Pune</p>

<p>India has been a dominant force in T20 internationals, producing some of the most remarkable victories in the format’s history. Over the years, the Indian cricket team has consistently outclassed opponents, setting new records and redefining the art of T20 batting and bowling.</p>
<p>Among their greatest triumphs, three matches stand out for their sheer dominance, each securing a victory by more than 140 runs. These include a 168-run win over New Zealand in 2023, a 150-run victory against England in 2025, and a 143-run demolition of Ireland in 2018. Let’s take a closer look at these historic matches.  </p>
<h2><strong>168-run Win Against New Zealand (2023, Ahmedabad)</strong></h2>
<p>India’s most significant victory margin in T20I history came against New Zealand on February 1, 2023, at Ahmedabad. Shubman Gill was the star of the show, becoming the fifth Indian to score a century in all three international formats. His stunning 126 off just 63 balls anchored India’s innings as they posted a massive 234/4. Supported by Rahul Tripathi and Suryakumar Yadav’s aggressive strokeplay, India built a daunting total.  </p>
<p><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202502/image_430x256_67a04ac24fccd.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p>Hardik Pandya’s decision to bat first proved to be a masterstroke, as the conditions assisted fast bowlers under the lights. India’s pace attack ripped through New Zealand’s batting lineup, reducing them to 21/5 in no time. Pandya and Arshdeep Singh bowled with precision, while Umran Malik’s raw pace finished off the lower order. The Kiwis were bundled out for just 66, handing India a record-breaking 168-run victory—the largest margin in T20I history between two Full-Member teams.  </p>
<h2><strong>150-run Win Against England (2025, Wankhede)</strong></h2>
<p>Just a day before this article, on February 2, 2025, India recorded another historic win, this time against England in Mumbai. The match belonged to Abhishek Sharma, who played a once-in-a-lifetime knock of 135 off 54 balls. His aggressive innings, filled with 13 sixes and nine fours, propelled India to a mammoth 247/9—their fourth-highest total in T20I cricket.</p>
<p><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202502/image_430x256_67a04ac465df3.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p>England, in response, had a glimmer of hope as Phil Salt smashed a 21-ball fifty, but his departure signaled the end of their challenge. Mohammed Shami’s early breakthroughs, coupled with Shivam Dube’s clever medium pace, dismantled England’s batting order. They crumbled to 97 all out in just 10.3 overs, unable to withstand the relentless Indian attack. With this 150-run victory, India secured the five-match series 4-1 in emphatic fashion.  </p>
<h2><strong>143-run Win Against Ireland (2018, Dublin)</strong></h2>
<p>In June 2018, India registered what was then their biggest T20I victory, crushing Ireland by 143 runs in Malahide. KL Rahul led the charge with a blazing 70 off 36 balls, while Suresh Raina provided stability with a well-compiled 60. Hardik Pandya’s late cameo of 32* off just nine balls ensured India crossed the 200-run mark, posting 213/4 in their 20 overs.</p>
<p><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202502/image_430x256_67a04ac7173d4.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p>Ireland’s chase never got going, as India’s spinners wreaked havoc. Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal shared six wickets, deceiving the Irish batsmen with their variations. Fast bowler Umesh Yadav also chipped in, dismissing key batters early. Ireland folded for just 70 in 12.3 overs, giving India a dominant 143-run win and a clean sweep of the two-match series.</p>
<h3><strong>Common Threads in These Historic Wins</strong></h3>
<p>A closer look at these matches reveals certain key factors behind India’s massive victories:</p>
<p><strong>1- Explosive Batting Performances</strong> – In all three games, India’s batters set the tone with aggressive and high-impact knocks, be it Gill’s century, Abhishek’s record-breaking 135, or Rahul’s blistering fifty.</p>
<p><strong>2. Bowling Excellence –</strong> The pace and spin combinations proved too much for the opposition. Whether it was Pandya’s fiery spells, Shami’s breakthroughs, or Kuldeep and Chahal’s trickery, India’s bowling ensured quick collapses.</p>
<p><strong>3. Tactical Brilliance –</strong> Captains made the right calls at crucial moments, whether it was batting first in Ahmedabad and Dublin or sticking to aggressive bowling plans in Mumbai.</p>
<p>India’s dominance in T20 cricket has been evident in these record-breaking victories. These matches not only showcased India’s depth in batting and bowling but also demonstrated their ability to outthink and outplay world-class opponents. With young talents emerging and experienced players leading the way, India will continue to set new benchmarks in T20I cricket.</p>

India’s biggest T20I wins include a 168-run victory over New Zealand (2023), a 150-run win against England (2025), and a 143-run triumph over Ireland (2018), showcasing dominant batting, bowling, and strategy.

India’s record T20I wins highlight explosive batting, lethal bowling, and tactical brilliance, crushing New Zealand, England, and Ireland by massive margins.
