World Record For Lowest Ever ODI Total Equalled

USA all out for record equalling low of 35, loses to Nepal 

 

 Young leg-spin sensation Sandeep Lamichhane on Tuesday claimed six wickets to help Nepal rip out USA for the lowest score in ODI history.

Only Xavier Marshall (16) could reach the double figures as USA was bowled out for 35 in the ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 match played at the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground.

Lamichhane finished with career-best figures of 6/16

Sushan Bhari, a slow left-arm orthodox by trade, picked up the other four wickets of the innings.

Nepal also broke the world record for the least balls taken by a team to bowl out the opposition in an ODI as it bundled out USA inside 12 overs

The USA’s score is level with Zimbabwe’s effort against Sri Lanka in Harare in 2004. The next lowest scores are by Canada (36), Zimbabwe (38) and Sri Lanka (43)

Nepal chased down the target in 32 balls with 8 wickets in hand

The match also entered history books as it was the shortest-ever ODI. The match was completed in just 17.2 overs.
