in Hyderabad. In this high-scoring game, India posted an impressive total of 297/6 in their innings, putting pressure on Bangladesh to perform similarly.
Yadav, at just 22 years old, played a significant role in curbing Bangladesh's response. On the very first delivery of the second inning, he delivered a short ball that caught Parvez Hossain Emon off guard.

Emon attempted to hit big but could not manage a proper shot, resulting in an awkward attempt. Parag, positioned at first slip, quickly moved to his left and took a comfortable catch.

Yadav's contribution was crucial in limiting Bangladesh's innings before it could gain momentum.
With this feat, Mayank became the fourth bowler in T20I history to take a wicket on the first ball of an innings. He joined an elite group of Indian cricketers that includes Hardik Pandya, Arshdeep Singh, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Bhuvneshwar Kumar has accomplished this feat three times in his career.
In another significant achievement, Sanju Samson became the first Indian wicketkeeper-batter to score a T20I century. This record was set during the third and final T20I against Bangladesh. Samson scored 111 runs off 47 balls, hitting 11 fours and eight sixes, with a strike rate of 236.17.

Sanju Samson has a notable record at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, amassing 398 runs in eight innings at an average of 66.33 and a strike rate of 162.44, including one century and two fifties. He also recorded the second-fastest T20I century by players from full-member teams.
The fastest T20I century by a full-member team player is held by David Miller of South Africa and Indian captain Rohit Sharma, both achieving the milestone in 35 balls.
