Bhutanโs Sonam Yeshey etched his name in the record books after becoming the first bowler to scalp 8 wickets in a T20I against Myanmar. The left-arm spinner achieved the feat during the third T20Is between the two sides in Gelephu.
Batting first, Bhutan managed to score 127/9 in 20 overs.ย Namgang Chejay top-scored with an unbeaten 50. But it was Sonam who made headlines with his stunning bowling efforts. The left-arm bowler didnโt let the opposition take an upperhand and rattled the batting unit.
Only two Myanmar batters were able to cross the double-figure mark asย Yeshey returned with figures of 7/8 in 4 overs which also included a maiden. Anand Mongar picked up the other two wickets to bowl out Myanmar for 45 and help the side win the match by 82 runs. The result also sealed Bhutanโs dominance in the five-match series, giving them an unassailable 3-0 lead.
Beforeย Yesheyโs effort, the best figures in menโs T20 Internationals stood at seven wickets. Malaysiaโs Syazrul Idrus had taken 7 for 8 against China in 2023, while Bahrainโs Ali Dawood claimed 7 for 19 against Bhutan earlier in 2025.
