Lasith Malinga becomes highest wicket-taker in T20Is, surpasses Shahid Afridi

India TV News  

Lasith Malinga surpassed former Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi to become the highest wicket-taker in T20Is. The Sri Lanka pacer also remains only one wicket short of being the first bowler to reach 100 international wickets in T20Is. However, Malinga’s economical figures couldn’t prevent Sri Lanka’s loss in the first T20I at Kandy, as New Zealand chased the 175-run target with three balls to spare. After a slow start where New Zealand were struggling at 39/3 in 7.2 overs, de Grandhomme and Ross Taylor smoothened the Kiwi innings, before Daryl Mitchell and Mitchell Santner took New Zealand to victory.
