Lowest team scores in Twenty20 cricket matches

Filed under Cricket Records

Kenya holds the record of lowest team total in T20 cricket matches.. In twenty20 cricket, there's more chance of seeing six sixes in an over than in one day internationals or test cricket cause batsmen play more freely in this shortest version of cricket than they do otherwise. Yuvraj Singh of India has already done it against Stuart Broad of England and more batters will touch it soon.

Naturally, teams getting out for low scores in T20 cricket is equally more probable than in other two formats. why? don't we know free-ness leads of failures.

4 August 2008, 1st Semi-final of World T20 cup qualifiers, Belfast in Ireland where home team elected to field first and cleaned up visitors for just 67 runs. Only two batsmen {Steve Tikolo (13) & Thomas Odoyo (10)} could reach double figure mark other than extras which added 12. Who were the unplayable bowlers? Swing bowlers Peter Connell, AR Cusack and Kevin O'Brien took couple of wickets each while Andre Botha picked up three scalps. Interestingly, Ireland too had a troubled batting time, reaching their target with just 4 wickets and 5 ball in hand!

Ireland were at end of humiliation against West Indies in T20 world cup and attain the second position.
