T20 World Cup, this team has scored the highest, India is at fourth position
T20 World Cup records: Preparations for the T20 World Cup 2024 are in full swing. The World Cup will be held in the USA and West Indies in June this year. The teams are now also busy preparing. The corresponding teams will also be announced shortly. In the meantime, today we will tell you what is the highest score in the history of the T20 World Cup and which team scored it. And what is the Indian team’s highest score?
Sri Lanka had scored 260 runs in 2007
Sri Lanka holds the highest scoring record in T20 World Cup history. The team achieved this feat in 2007. This record has not been broken since. This year, the Sri Lankan team had scored 260 runs after losing six wickets in the innings against Kenya. This World Cup was played in South Africa and this game took place in Johannesburg.
England scored 230 runs in 2016
Afterwards, at the 2016 World Cup, the English team came close to this maximum number of points, but even then they were unable to break it. That year, England had scored 230 runs while losing 8 wickets at the Wankhede Stadium. In the same year, South Africa had also scored 229 runs for 4 wickets. This was the same game in which England had scored 230 runs. That means two big points were scored in the same game.
Team India’s highest score is 218 runs.
Now let’s talk about the Indian team. Team India had itself recorded its highest score in the history of the T20 World Cup in 2007 when it played a match against England. This was the same game that you will remember very well. In this match, Yuvraj Singh hit six sixes in six balls and also completed his half-century in just twelve balls. Team India had scored 218 runs and that too with the loss of just 4 wickets. After that, the Indian team had never managed to achieve such a high score.
Will the record be broken this time?
This time too, Indian players are playing in the T20 World Cup, so it will be interesting to see if the Indian batsmen can break the record of their highest score. Sri Lanka’s highest score in 2007 could also be in jeopardy. For this you will have to wait until June 1st when this big tournament begins.
