Zimbabwe broke the record of highest score in T20 cricket, established this record

Today, the Zimbabwe cricket team has achieved such a feat in T20 International, which was never seen before. It seemed like a dream for any team to score more than 300 runs in T20 International, but Zimbabwe made it a reality. In the match played against Gambia, Zimbabwe made the highest score of T20 International and scored 344 runs losing only four wickets in 20 overs. This is a record which was never made before.

Zimbabwe created history in T20 International, scored 344 runs

History was created in this match played between Zimbabwe and Gambia. Zimbabwe batted first and scored 344 runs. Before this, only once in T20 International had a team scored more than 300 runs, when Nepal had scored 313 runs against Mongolia in 2023. Then it was believed that this record would not be broken for a long time, but Zimbabwe broke it. In this match, three Zimbabwe batsmen scored half-centuries, while Sikandar Raza scored a stormy century.

Sikandar Raza's explosive century

Sikandar Raza played a explosive and aggressive inning of 133 runs in just 43 balls. In this innings he hit 15 sixes and 7 fours and remained unbeaten till the end. Gambia's bowlers were badly beaten, with no bowlers being spared by Zimbabwe's batsmen. The result of this aggressive batting was that Zimbabwe made the highest score in T20 International.

Musa Jobarteh's expensive spell

Another record was made in this match, but it was in the name of Gambian bowler Moses Jobarteh. He bowled the most expensive spell of T20 International, giving away 93 runs in his four overs, and did not get a single wicket. He was just 7 runs away, otherwise a bowler would have given 100 runs for the first time in T20 International cricket. Despite this, his name has been registered in the record book. Sikandar Raza completed his century in just 33 balls and became the second batsman to score the joint fastest century in T20 International. In this innings, Zimbabwe's batsmen hit a total of 27 sixes, which happened for the first time in T20 International. Now it remains to be seen what other records will be made during Gambia's batting.
