The most prestigious version after tests is ODI cricket. Day, night ODI cricket gives a different kind of insanity to the spectators. The various ICC events and ODI world cup member countries host bilateral or trilateral series among themselves. Many countries in 50 overs ODI cricket have to face a shameful team total.
Let’s look at some of the lowest team totals in the history of ODI cricket.
-
