The 31-year-old’s exceptional performance with the bat has been instrumental in Pakistan’s success in the shortest format of the game.
Rizwan’s achievement marks a significant milestone, overshadowing the record previously held by Shahid Afridi, who secured 11 Man of the Match awards in 99 T20I matches.
Alongside Afridi, Shadab Khan and Mohammad Hafeez also boast 11 Man of the Match awards each in their T20I careers for Pakistan.
