List of five-wicket hauls in Twenty20 International cricket

Umar Gul in June 2009
Pakistan's Umar Gul was the first player to take a five-wicket haul in a T20I match.[1]

A Twenty20 International (T20I) is an international cricket match between two teams, each having T20I status, as determined by the International Cricket Council.[2] In a T20I, the two teams play a single innings each, which is restricted to a maximum of 20 overs.[3] The format was originally introduced by the England and Wales Cricket Board for the county cricket competition with the first matches contested on 13 June 2003 between the English counties in the Twenty20 Cup.[4] The first T20I took place on 17 February 2005 when Australia defeated New Zealand by 44 runs at Eden Park in Auckland.[5]

A five-wicket haul (also known as a "five-for" or "fifer")[6][7] refers to a bowler taking five or more wickets in a single innings. This is regarded as a notable achievement.[8] The first five-wicket haul in a T20I match was taken by Pakistan's Umar Gul while playing against New Zealand at The Oval during the 2009 ICC World Twenty20.[1] Gul and Ajantha Mendis of Sri Lanka are the two cricketers to achieve the feat twice in international format.[9] Two bowlers have taken a six-wicket haul in T20Is with Mendis returning the best figures in the format with six wickets for just eight runs against Zimbabwe during the 2012 ICC World Twenty20,[10][11] eclipsing the previous best of 6 for 16 also set by Mendis against Australia twelve months prior.[12] The other six-wicket haul was achieved by Yuzvendra Chahal of India against England in 2017.[13]

The most recent five-wicket haul, as of 8 July 2018, was taken by Kuldeep Yadav of India against England at Old Trafford during the first T20I match in July 2018.[14][15] New Zealand's Tim Southee is the only cricketer to take a hat-trick as part of his T20I five-wicket haul,[16] while Elias Sunny of Bangladesh is only bowler to take a five-wicket haul on T20I debut.[17] Rangana Herath has taken the most economical five-wicket haul with an economy rate of just 0.85.[18] Bowling for Sri Lanka, he took five wickets for just three runs against New Zealand during the 2014 ICC World Twenty20.[19] The least economical five-wicket haul was taken by fellow Sri Lankan Lasith Malinga with an economy rate of 7.75.[20] Imran Tahir of South Africa is oldest player to take five wickets in an T20I innings, achieving the feat 38 days prior to his 38th birthday,[21] while Rashid Khan of Afghanistan, is the youngest at 18.[22] Khan's five-wicket haul occurred in a match that was decided by the Duckworth–Lewis method,[23] while a further four came in a match which did not result in a victory to the team taking the five-wicket haul.[24]

As of 8 July 2018, 24 five-wicket hauls have been taken by 22 different players from 690 T20I matches.[25] Players from all teams that have permanent T20I status – with the exception of England, Zimbabwe and Ireland – have taken a five-wicket haul.[lower-alpha 1] Of the teams that have temporary T20I status only Scotland and the Netherlands have had a player achieve the milestone[lower-alpha 2] and of the teams that have previously held temporary T20I status only Kenya has a player achieve the feat.[lower-alpha 3] Sri Lanka lead the list with four five-wicket hauls, followed by India, Pakistan and South Africa all with three.[27] Five-wicket hauls have been taken at 21 different grounds, with Eden Park in New Zealand, Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Sri Lanka and Bangladesh's Zohur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium all leading the list with two each.[28]
