South Africa break India's record, defend the lowest total in T20 World Cup history against Bangladesh

NEW DELHI: South Africa created history on Monday by successfully defending the lowest total in ICC T20 World Cup history.

This historic feat by South Africa surpassed the record set by India just hours earlier. India had defended a target of 120 runs against arch-rivals Pakistan at the same venue in their Group A T20 World Cup clash.
