A T20I match is won when one side has scored more runs than the runs scored by the opposing side during their innings. If both sides have completed both their allocated innings and the side that fielded last has the higher aggregate of runs, it is known as a win by runs. This indicates the number of runs that they had scored more than the opposing side. If the side batting last wins the match, it is known as a win by wickets, indicating the number of wickets that were still to fall. [20]

The wicket-keeper is a specialist fielder who stands behind the stumps being guarded by the batsman on strike, and is the only member of the fielding side allowed to wear gloves and leg pads. [87] Many players have played matches both as a wicket-keeper and as a regular fielder; in the records below, the number of innings refers to those where the player was the nominated wicket-keeper at the start of the match, and the number of catches only include those taken as a wicket-keeper.
A wicket-keeper can be credited with the dismissal of a batsman in two ways, caught or stumped. A fair catch is taken when the ball is caught fully within the field of play without it bouncing after the ball has touched the striker's bat or glove holding the bat, [88] [89] while a stumping occurs when the wicket-keeper puts down the wicket while the batsman is out of his ground and not attempting a run. [90] Jos Buttler is the highest-ranked English player, at 4th place, in the list of most dismissals in T20Is as a wicket-keeper, the list being headed by South African Quinton de Kock with 102 dismissals (84 catches and 18 stumpings).
