Jasprit Bumrah reached a major career milestone on October 3, 2026. He played his 100th T20 international for India in the Asian Games gold-medal match against Pakistan. The landmark came at the Kōrogi Sports Park in Nisshin.

Bumrah is widely regarded as one of the best fast bowlers in the world. His 99th appearance came in the semifinal against Sri Lanka on October 1. In that match he also became the first Indian to play T20 international cricket in 13 different countries.

Reaching 100 T20Is is a rare feat for a fast bowler. The format is demanding, and injuries often cut careers short. Bumrah’s yorkers and death bowling have won India many close games over the years.

The milestone arrived on one of the biggest stages. An India-Pakistan final always draws massive attention. Bumrah will hope to mark the occasion with wickets and a gold medal. India are defending their Asian Games cricket title.
