Bumrah Makes History: Breaks Ashwin's T20 World Cup Wicket Record
•Jasprit Bumrah took 3 wickets for 15 runs in 4 overs against South Africa in the T20 World Cup Super Eight match.
•He surpassed Ravichandran Ashwin's record to become India's highest wicket-taker in T20 World Cups.
•Bumrah now has 33 wickets in 22 matches, compared to Ashwin's 32 wickets in 24 matches.
•His performance included dismissing Quinton de Kock and Ryan Rickelton early in the innings.
•Cricket analysts believe Bumrah has the potential for even bigger records, despite Bangladesh's Shakib Al Hasan holding the overall T20 World Cup wicket record with 50 wickets.
