Mongolia’s Struggles in T20 Cricket: Lowest Totals in History
T20 cricket is said to be a batsman’s game. In this format of cricket, the bowlers do not get much chance to shine as the batsmen try to score runs quickly. But Mongolia is trying something different in international T20 cricket. All the records for the lowest score in T20 Internationals are held by the Mongolian team. He has been included in the T20I lowest total not once but many times. In the latest match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Asia Qualifier A, Mongolia were bowled out for just 31 runs.
