By Correspondent On Oct 31, 2025

AUS vs IND: In the fast-paced world of T20 cricket, consistency is a rare and priceless commodity. Players come and go, matches are decided in a matter of balls, and yet, some batters and bowlers have managed to maintain long unbeaten streaks, carving their names into cricketing records.

Two such streaks – belonging to Shivam Dube and Jasprit Bumrah came to an end today, reminding fans of the unpredictable and thrilling nature of the shortest format.

Shivam Dube’s 37-Match Unbeaten Run Comes to an End

Shivam Dube has been a revelation in T20 cricket, especially in the death overs, and his 37-match unbeaten streak from December 2019 to 2025 was a testament to his resilience. The streak began after his last defeat against West Indies in Trivandrum, and for more than five years, Dube had never been on the losing side in T20Is.

Today, however, that streak was broken, marking the end of an era. Cricket fans will remember Dube not only for his big-hitting prowess but also for his ability to stay unbeaten under pressure, a rare trait in T20 cricket.

Jasprit Bumrah’s 24-Match Streak Halted

Jasprit Bumrah, arguably India’s most lethal T20 bowler in recent years, had an unbeaten streak of 24 matches from 2021 to 2025. His last defeat came against New Zealand in Dubai in October 2021. Known for his pinpoint yorkers and clever variations, Bumrah had a knack for steering matches in India’s favor – often without the spotlight shining on him.

The end of his unbeaten streak today is a reminder of the fine margins in T20 cricket. Even the best bowlers can’t escape the unpredictability of the game, and Bumrah’s streak remains an extraordinary achievement.
