Zimbabwe hits 344 to set world record T20 score in win over Gambia
NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — Zimbabwe hit 344-4 in a T20 World Cup qualifier on Wednesday, setting what cricket’s global governing body said was a world-record international score in the format.
Zimbabwe was playing Gambia in an African sub-regional qualifier at the Ruaraka Sports Club Ground in Nairobi, Kenya.
The ICC said the total was a world record for a T20 international, eclipsing the previous high score of 314-3 set by Nepal against Mongolia in 2023.
Sikandar Raza smashed 133 not out off 43 balls in a knock that included 15 sixes.
