In the first over itself, a rare record on India.

England pacer Sakib Mahmood stunned the Indian team with his exceptional bowling. In the fourth T20I held at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune, Mahmood made history by taking three crucial wickets in his first over. His outstanding bowling dismantled India’s top order. By dismissing Sanju Samson, Tilak Varma, and Suryakumar Yadav in the first over, he registered a "Triple Wicket Maiden," a special achievement for him. With this, Mahmood became the first England player to take a Triple Wicket Maiden in T20Is and the first bowler to achieve this against India. India's batting collapsed right from the first over.

Even though Jos Buttler chose to field, it gave Sakib Mahmood the opportunity to strike in the over. Mahmood first got Sanju Samson, who attempted a big shot but ended up giving a catch at deep square leg. Then, Tilak Varma also sliced the ball and got caught. This led to him facing a golden duck in his international career.

Finally, Suryakumar Yadav, under pressure, gave a catch to the mid-on fielder at the end of the over. There were two changes in the England team for this match. Sakib Mahmood replaced Mark Wood, and Jacob Bethell replaced Jamie Smith. Mahmood lived up to expectations brilliantly. India's batting came under severe pressure, and after losing three crucial wickets, the team collapsed for a low score. With this spectacular performance, Sakib Mahmood made a significant mark in international cricket.
