DHAKA, Sept 13, 2025 (BSS) - Fast bowler Taskin Ahmed is on the verge of 
achieving the feat of 100 wickets in the T20 format as only the third bowler 
of Bangladesh.

Taskin needs only four wickets to reach this milestone and given the form, he 
is highly likely to materialize it when Bangladesh will take on Sri Lanka in 
their second game of the Asia Cup today at Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.

Shakib Al Hasan and Mustafizur Rahman so far remains only the two bowlers 
from Bangladesh to take more than 100 wickets. Taskin Ahmed is in the third 
spot now with 96 wickets from 79 matches.

Shakib is in the top of the list with 149 wickets in 129 matches while 
Mustafizur who is likely to go past the ace all-rounder very soon so far took 
142 wickets in 114 matches.
