List of Twenty20 International records - wikipedia List of Twenty20 International records For the equivalent women 's record, see List of women 's Twenty20 International records. For the ICC Twenty20 ranking scheme, see ICC T20I Championship. This article contains records for men 's Twenty20 Internationals. Shahid Afridi has played the most matches and is the highest wicket - taker in T20I cricket. T20I World Record Team Total scoreboard Twenty20 International ( T20I ) cricket is played between international cricket teams who are either Full Members of the International Cricket Council ( ICC ) or the top six Associate and Affiliate members, as well as Nepal and the Netherlands. After the performance of Nepal in ICC World Cup Qualifier in 2015, Nepal lost the status of T20 international team and was replaced by Oman. Unlike Test matches, T20Is consist of one innings per team, each limited to 20 overs. The first T20I was played between New Zealand and Australia on 17 February 2005. The frequency of matches has steadily increased, partly because of the increase in the number of T20I - playing countries, and partly as the cricket boards of those nations seek to maximise their revenue. Pakistan was the first team to play 100 Twenty20 International cricket matches. Cricket is, by its nature, capable of generating large numbers of records and statistics. Records and statistics are kept for individual players and teams across the three disciplines of batting, bowling, and fielding. Some of these lists are aggregate in nature. The trend of countries to increase the number of T20I matches they play means that these aggregate lists are dominated by modern players. Examples of such lists include the most career runs, most career wickets taken, most dismissals by a wicketkeeper, and most catches taken. Other, non-aggregate records, include most runs scored in an over, highest career strike rate, and most consecutive wins and defeats.
