List of Twenty20 International records

Babar Azam (left) and Rashid Khan are the highest run-scorer and wicket-taker in T20Is respectively.

A Twenty20 International (T20I) is a form of Twenty20 cricket in which each team plays a single innings with a maximum of twenty overs. The matches are played between international teams recognized by the International Cricket Council (ICC). The first T20I was played on 17 February 2005 between Australia and New Zealand, with the first ICC T20 World Cup held in 2007. As of February 2025, 99 nations feature in T20I team rankings released by ICC.[1] The article lists the various records for men's T20Is.[2]
