Star India all-rounder Deepti Sharma on Friday became the joint highest wicket-taker in T20 Internationals along side Megan Schutt of Australia after returning impressive figures of 3 for 18 in the third game against Sri Lanka, taking her tally to 151.
Deepti has taken 131 matches to get to 151 at an average of 18.73 and strike rate of 18.43 while Schutt took eight matches less to reach the figure at an average of 17.70 and strike rate of 16.57.
Deepti reached the milestone by dismissing Malsha Shehani in her final over.
With that breakthrough, the right-arm spinner also became the third-highest wicket-taker in women’s international cricket.
