Historic Milestone in T20 International Cricket

Nepal’s men’s cricket team made history at the Asian Games by becoming the first team ever to score over 300 runs in a T20 international match. In a breathtaking display of power-hitting, Nepal rewrote the record books with a colossal total of 314-3 in their 20 overs, surpassing Afghanistan’s previous highest of 278-3 against Ireland in 2019.

Kushal Malla’s Lightning Century

Nepal’s batting onslaught was led by Kushal Malla, who occupied the No. 3 spot and blazed his way to the fastest century in T20 international cricket, taking only 34 balls to achieve this remarkable feat. Malla’s innings concluded with an unbeaten 137 runs off just 50 balls, including an astonishing 12 sixes and eight fours.

Dipendra Singh Airee’s Explosive Finish

The innings reached a crescendo when Dipendra Singh Airee entered the fray. Airee put on an extraordinary display, obliterating the Mongolian bowlers with eight consecutive sixes during his unbeaten innings of 52 runs off a mere 10 balls. He achieved his fifty in just nine balls, setting yet another world record and surpassing Yuvraj Singh’s 2007 effort against England, which took 12 balls.

Records Galore

Nepal’s stunning display of power-hitting saw them hit a record-breaking 26 sixes during their innings, surpassing Afghanistan’s previous record of 22 against Ireland.

In response, Mongolia, whose women’s team had been bowled out for a mere 15 runs the previous week in the Asian Games, found themselves dismissed for just 41 runs.

21-Year-Old Afghan Cricketer Creates History with 48 Runs in a T20 Over. In a remarkable display of power hitting, 21-year-old Afghan cricketer Sediqullah Atal left spectators in awe as he smashed an astonishing 48 runs off a single over during a Kabul Premier League Twenty20 match. The thrilling encounter took place between Shaheen Hunters and Abasin Defenders at Kabul’s Ayobi Cricket Stadium.

Cricinfo, known for its meticulous record-keeping, only had an entry for the most runs scored off a T20 over in the Indian Premier League, with 37 runs achieved by West Indian Chris Gayle in 2011. However, Atal shattered this record by an impressive 11 runs.

Atal’s incredible onslaught began when spinner Amir Zazai, who had conceded 35 runs for one wicket off three overs until that point, delivered his first ball of the 19th over. Atal, who was already on an impressive 76 runs with his team at 158 for six, wasted no time in sending the ball soaring over the boundary ropes for a massive six.

The next ball from Zazai was wide, which went past the wicketkeeper for four byes, adding 12 more runs to Atal’s explosive tally, and leaving Zazai with six more balls to bowl. Undeterred, Atal continued his ruthless assault on the bowler, smashing each delivery for a six, finishing on an incredible 118 not out off just 56 balls.

This historic feat occurred in the inaugural season of the Kabul Premier League, with only a handful of spectators present at the stadium to witness the extraordinary performance. However, the momentous occasion was captured on video and is now making rounds on social media.

“Unbelievable performance,” the commentator exclaimed as Atal achieved this remarkable milestone. Shaheen Hunters finished their innings with an imposing total of 213 for six, while Abasin Defenders managed 181 all out in response. Atal’s exceptional innings will undoubtedly be remembered as a defining moment in T20 cricket history.
