Historic low for Mongolia cricket as Japan restrict them to 12 all out in a T20I

Mongolia National Cricket Team have achieved an unwanted feat to their name in the T20I. They were bundled out for just 12 runs in a T20I game against the Japan National Cricket Team on Monday (7th May). This is the second-lowest score in the history of the shortest of the game.

Mongolia bowled first in the game against Japan and they didn't have a great outing with the ball. They ended up conceding 217 in a game, which took place in Japan. Sabaorish Ravichandran was the top run-getter for his team as he played an innings of 69 runs off 39 balls.

Sabaorish Ravichandran also hit six fours and four sixes in his innings to keep his team at the top against the Mongolia National Cricket Team. Apart from him, Kazuma Kato-Stafford and Ibrahim Takahashi played quick cameos that powered Japan to 217 runs at the Sano International Cricket Ground.

Japan National Cricket Team then came out all guns blazing with the ball and made a mockery of the Mongolia National Cricket Team's batting lineup. Kato-Stafford bowled impeccable lines and lengths and ran through the opposition's batting lineup.

Kato-Stafford picked up a five-wicket haul in just four overs. Apart from him, Abdul Samad and Makoto Taniyama also chipped in and picked two wickets. Debutant Benjamin Ito-Davis also scalped a wicket as they bundled out the opposition for just 12 runs.

Tur Sumya was the top run scorer for Mongolia as he scored 4 runs off 12 balls. Opening batter Namsrai Bat-yalalt played 12 balls as well but managed 2 runs as they suffered a batting debacle and got all out for 12 at the Sano International Cricket Ground.

Mongolia's 12-all out is the second-lowest score in the history of the T20Is. They are behind Isle of Man, who got all our for just 10mruns against Spain in 2023. The Mongolian team would now be hoping to make a strong comeback and better their Cricket.
