All-rounder Hardik Pandya on Thursday became the first Indian player to scalp four wickets and score a half-century in a single T20I match. Hardik achieved this feat during the first T20I against England, where he scored 51 runs and went on to scalp four wickets to provide Team India with a 50-run victory. With this record, Hardik has joined the list of Dwayne Bravo, Shane Watson, and Mohammed Hafeez. 

Earlier, former all-rounder, Yuvraj Singh came close to this record in 2009 when he scored a half-century and scalped three wickets in a home series against Sri Lanka.
