  • The milestone came with the dismissal of Vinayak Shukla off the first ball of the final over in Abu Dhabi.
  • India posted 188/8 and limited Oman to 167/4 to secure a 21-run Group A victory and stay unbeaten.
  • Reports place Singh’s 100 in 64 T20Is as the fastest among pacers and fourth overall behind Rashid Khan, Sandeep Lamichhane and Wanindu Hasaranga.
  • His T20I record at the landmark: 100 wickets at a 18.49 average, 13.3 strike rate and 8.31 economy, with best figures of 4/9.
