297 for 6 India's total against Bangladesh in Hyderabad is now the second-highest by any team in all men's T20Is. The highest also came in a T20I - 314 for 3 by Nepal against Mongolia in the Asian Games last year in Hangzhou. India's previous highest total was 260 for 5 against Sri Lanka in 2017.

232 Runs scored through boundaries by India in Hyderabad, the most by any team in a men's T20. The previous highest was 216 runs by Punjab against Andhra last year, while the previous highest in a T20I was 212 by Nepal against Mongolia.

47 Boundaries by India against Bangladesh - 25 fours and 22 sixes, the most by any team in a men's T20. The previous highest was 43 boundaries by the Czech Republic against Turkey in 2019 and Punjab against Andhra in 2023.

18 Number of overs in Indian innings that fetched 10-plus runs, the most in a men's T20 innings, where ball-by-ball data is available. Only seven runs came in the first over and nine in the ninth, both bowled by Mahedi Hasan.

1 Sanju Samson is now the first Indian wicketkeeper to score a hundred in a men's T20I. Ishan Kishan's 89 against Sri Lanka in 2022 was the previous highest score by an Indian keeper. Samson's 111 ranks sixth in the list of highest individual scores by a wicketkeeper in men's T20Is.

40 Balls Samson needed for his hundred. It is the second-fastest century for India in men's T20Is, behind Rohit Sharma's 35-ball effort against Sri Lanka in 2017.

2 Number of ten-over totals in men's T20Is, higher than India's 152 for 1 on Saturday (where ball-by-ball data is available). Australia scored 156 for 3 against Scotland in 9.4 overs earlier this year, while Estonia got to 154 for 4 at the end of their tenth over against Cyprus in 2024. India's previous highest total at the end of the tenth over was 117 for 0 against Sri Lanka in 2017.

152 for 2 India's total in the middle overs (7-16) in Hyderabad. Only one team has scored more runs in middle overs in a men's T20I, where BBB data is available - 163 for 1 by Nepal against Mongolia in 2023.

13.6 Overs needed for India to reach the 200-run mark, the second-fastest any team got there in men's T20Is, where BBB data is available. The fastest is off 13.5 overs by South Africa against West Indies last year.

1 India achieved their fastest team 100 in men's T20Is on Saturday, in only 7.1 overs. Their previous fastest was off 7.6 overs against West Indies in 2019 at the Wankhede.

The 82 for 1 they made in the powerplay is also the joint-highest in the format, alongside the 82 for 2 against Scotland in the 2021 T20 World Cup game.

22 Sixes by India against Bangladesh in Hyderabad, the most by them in a men's T20I, surpassing the 21 they hit against Sri Lanka in 2017. The 22 sixes by Indian batters are also the joint third-most by any team in a men's T20I.

37 Number of 200-plus totals for India in T20Is are the most by any team in the format. These are also the most by any team in men's T20s, going past the 36 by Somerset.

15.04 Run rate of the partnership between Samson and Suryakumar Yadav, the second-highest for a stand of 150-plus runs in men's T20Is. The highest is 17.81 by Kushal Malla and Rohit Paudel, who put on 193 off 65 balls for Nepal against Mongolia.

5 Sixes hit by Samson in the tenth over against Rishad Hossain. He is only the second batter to hit five or more sixes in an over for India, after Yuvraj Singh, who hit six sixes off Stuart Broadin the 2007 T20 World Cup.

133 India's win margin in Hyderabad is their third biggest by runs in men's T20Is and the biggest for any team against Bangladesh.

It is the sixth instance of India winning by a margin of 100-plus runs. Japan (8), Canada (7) and Malaysia (6) are the other teams with six or more wins by 100-plus run wins in men's T20Is.
