At this time, the focus of cricket fans from all over the world is on the IPL but beyond the IPL, a club match played in England became a record that caught everyone’s attention. This is a record that no team would ever want to break. Richmund’s fourth XI team in the Middlesex League match chased 427 runs on Saturday, all out for a total of two runs, out of which only one run came with the bat while one was of Wide.
Chasing a huge target of 427 runs, Richmond’s batsmen stayed at the crease for just 5.4 overs. Earlier, the North London Cricket Club destroyed Richmond’s bowling attack in the Middlesex County League match. After winning the toss by Richmond, a huge score of 426–6 was made in the prescribed 45 overs.
After this, Richmond’s batsmen were also expected to answer strongly but his batting was scattered like cards. Eight of the ten batsmen of Richmond returned to the pavilion without disturbing the scorer, that is, 8 batsmen were dismissed for zero. While the two runs scored by the team, one run came out of the bat while the other run came due to wide delivery.
The scorecard of this match is also being shared on social media and Richmond’s team is also being made fun of. However, this is not the first time that a team has performed so poorly on the cricket field. Many times it has been seen that chasing the big score, the teams were shattered under pressure and a shameful record was recorded. This match was also similar.
