Lowest T20 Score: Adelaide Strikers bowled out Sydney Thunder for 15 runs in 35 deliveries in BBL 2022

Sydney Thunder recorded the lowest score ever in a men’s professional T20 cricket match on Friday as they crumbled in stunning style in their Big Bash match against Adelaide Strikers. England’s Alex Hales and four other Thunder hitters were all out for ducks as Henry Thornton finished with 5-3 from 2.5 overs and fellow Strikers bowler Wes Agar with 4-6 from 2.

The Big Bash League’s previous lowest total, which was the 57 Melbourne Renegades had collapsed to against city rivals Stars in January 2015, was completely destroyed by Thunder, whose top scorer was No. 10 batter Brendan Doggett (four). Thunder’s side finished in just 5.5 overs and destroyed the previous lowest total.

Henry Thornton, Player of the Match: Have no clue what’s going on, it’s amazing. We thought they bowled really, really well considering what the wicket was doing, but we hung in there long enough. Haven’t seen anything similar to this ever, unbelievable stuff to be honest. We just thought that if we could bowl on top of the stumps, we were clear on what we have to execute. I think we got a lot of nick-offs and Short took one of the best catches at first slip. Really happy for Wes Agar, he bowled really well. Was super disciplined, great performance by him. Pretty unique (bowling with three slips), I just couldn’t believe it. Lynn was like if you want two or three slips, it was quite amazing. To have guys like Lynn next to you, it’s amazing. To be honest I couldn’t believe it. Thought 150 would be good but turned out to be enough.
