In international cricket, a hit wicket is an uncommon method of dismissal. Interestingly, none of India’s batters were dismissed in this manner during the country’s first 11 years as a T20I nation. However, there have been four such incidents in the last four years in which an Indian batter accidentally knocked the bails off the stumps while playing a shot, with two of them occurring in the last week. Here are all the instances of Indian players getting out hit-wicket in a T20I game.

1. Shreyas Iyer vs New Zealand- 2022

Shreyas Iyer is the most recent addition to this list. The right-handed batter was out in the second T20I of the ongoing series against New Zealand when he was bowled out. He looked in good form during his inning, scoring 13 runs on eight balls while hitting one four and one six.

Shreyas Iyer was out via hit wicket on the fourth ball of the innings’ 13th over, bowled by Lockie Ferguson. He attempted to guide a back-of-length delivery towards the square leg region, but his leg collided with the stumps.
