India scored 219/5 against Zimbabwe in the second T20I, their ninth 200-plus total in 2026.
This equals India's own world record for most 200-plus T20I totals in a calendar year, set in 2024.
India now has 52 all-time 200-plus T20I totals, far ahead of second-placed South Africa with 29.
Ishan Kishan and Tilak Varma led the recovery after India collapsed to 29/2 inside the powerplay.
No other full-member nation has managed more than six 200-plus totals in a single T20I calendar year.
