    South Africa slump to 18 for 6

    By Will last year, mid-December Leave a comment on this post

    I’d assumed South Africa’s Twenty20 against West Indies was going to be rained off, but they’ve mopped things up and the home side are tottering, like a drunken pensioner, on 18 for 6. Note: that’s South Africa, not West Indies. What a laugh Twenty20 is. Can West Indies f*** it up from here? Here’s the scorecard for those with nerves of steel.

    The lowest ever score in a Twenty20 is Titans’ 47 against the Eagles in 2004. Kenya hold the embarrassment of the most meagre in internationals with 73…which looks a horribly long way off for South Africa.

    I think the records for low scores are safe, given that it was reduced to 13 overs by rain. Without Johan Botha’s 28, though, it would have been really ugly (since the next leading scorer was extras, with 13).
