New Delhi: India's frontline seamer Jasprit Bumrah achieved a major personal milestone of sorts in the 5th and final T2OI against Kiwis at the Bay Oval in Mount . Bumrah became only the 7th Indian cricketer to play 50 T2O internationals for India. The speedster  joined the likes of Rohit Sharma, MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, Shikhar Dhawan and Suresh Raina in elite club. Bumrah has been pretty economical in the ongoing T2O series against New Zealand with the just one odd bad performance in the 3rd T2OI where he gave away too many runs in the Super Over. Bumrah has picked up 4 wickets in the ongoing series. The ace speedster has picked up 57 wickets in his 50 apperances for India in the shortest format. Bumrah has been a champion bowler for India in all forms of the game and was ranked as the number one bowlers in the limited overs format before sustaining an injury and being sidelined from international cricket post the ICC World Cup. Talking about Bumrah's feat, he has joined the likes of Rohit Sharma, MS Dhoni, Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, Shikhar Dhawan and Suresh Raina in the list. Most T20I appearances for Team India Rohit Sharma: 107 MS Dhoni: 98 Virat Kohli: 82 Suresh Raina: 78 Shikhar Dhawan: 61 Yuvraj Singh: 58 Jasprit Bumrah: 50*
