3rd T20I: Record-breaking India Scale New Heights With Bat In Hyderabad
Rajiv Gandhi Interantional Stadium: On the day of Dusshera, reigning T20 World Cup champion India scaled new heights with the bat on a record-breaking day. Electing to bat first, India smashed a whopping 297/6 - the second-highest score in men's T20I history, against Bangladesh at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.
It is also India’s highest team total in T20Is and the most runs ever posted by a full-member nation in this format, going past Afghanistan (278/3), England (267/3) and Australia (263/3).
India's previous highest score in men’s T20Is was 260/5 scored against Sri Lanka in 2017. Incidentally, this was the game that saw Rohit Sharma smash a 35-ball century, the fastest by an Indian male player in the shortest format of the game.
