The great pacer accomplished this achievement in just 34 games, overtaking the legendary Kapil Dev, who needed 39 games to reach the same mark.


Waqar Younis remains the fastest bowler, having reached this milestone in just his 27th Test.

While Erapalli Prasanna and Anil Kumble took 34 Tests each to reach the milestone among spinners, Ravichandran Ashwin (29) and Ravindra Jadeja (32) are the only Indians who did so faster than Bumrah.
