The left-arm seamer became only the fourth bowler to reach the milestone of 150 wickets in the format during the T20 Asia Cup Super Fours clash against India at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
Mustafiz, renowned for his deceptive cutters and variations, entered the elite club by dismissing Indian skipper Suryakumar Yadav.
With this feat, he has now surpassed Shakib Al Hasan’s tally of 149 wickets, becoming Bangladesh’s highest wicket-taker in T20Is.
Mustafiz joins Afghanistan’s Rashid Khan (173 wickets), New Zealand’s Tim Southee (164), and Ish Sodhi (150) as the only bowlers to achieve this landmark in the shortest format.
