This is certainly a huge achievement considering the fact that in T20I cricket, the batters play very aggressively and they try to score as much as possible in fewer balls. As of now, Rashid Khan has bowled 106 deliveries without getting hit for a four and till date, no other bowler has been able to achieve this feat in international cricket.
