Indian all-rounder Axar Patel reaches a historic bowling milestone, becoming the first spinner from Team India to take 100 wickets in T20 Internationals. Multiple outlets report that he achieves the landmark during the second T20I against England at Old Trafford. In that match, Patel takes a wicket that brings him to the 100-T20I mark, dismissing England captain Harry Brook. Both sources note that Patel’s T20I career begins with his debut in 2015, and that he has been a regular wicket-taker for India in the shorter format since then. NDTV also adds that, globally, Patel is only the fourth bowler to reach 100 T20I wickets, highlighting the rarity of the achievement beyond India. The reports agree that the milestone is reached mid-series against England in the specific match at Old Trafford, underscoring the timing of the record within the ongoing international fixtures.
