Deepti Sharma Makes History As Joint-Highest Wicket-Taker In Women’s T20Is
Deepti Sharma, India's spin-bowling all-rounder continued her great run-of-form in the IND vs SL Women's T20I series to make history and become the joint-highest wicket-taker in the format.
She achieved the feat during the India vs Sri Lanka 3rd Women's T20I, being played in Kerala.
With figures of 18/3 in that match, she joins Australia's Megan Schutt as the highest wicket-taker (151 wickets) in women's T20Is.
With two more matches to go in this bilateral series, Deepti Sharma can easily take her tally further ahead.
She was instrumental for India in their recent World Cup winning campaign as well, finishing as the highest wicket-taker in the tournament with 22 dismissals.
Deepti Sharma also chips in with the bat, which makes her one of the most important players for the national team.
