Nepal men's cricket team made history at the ongoing Asian Games cricket tournament in Hangzhou, China as they smashed the highest-ever total in T20I cricket history, the fastest fifty and fastest century by a player in format's history on Wednesday. They accomplished this during their match against Mongolia.
This match also kickstarts the men's cricket competition at the continental meet. In the match, Nepal smashed 314/3 in their 20 overs. It is the highest-ever total in T20Is, overtaking Afghanistan's 278/3 against Ireland in 2019.
They also smashed a total of 26 sixes in their innings, the highest by a team in the format's history in a single innings. They went past Afghanistan's record of 22 sixes that helped them make 278/3 back in 2019.
