Struggling RCB go past Middlesex for this unwanted record in T20 cricket history

NEW DELHI: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) found themselves on the wrong side of history as they registered an unwanted record in men's T20 cricket. During an Indian Premier League (IPL) match against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), RCB conceded a staggering 222 runs.

Conceding 200 runs or more in a T20 innings is a rare and remarkable feat, albeit one that teams strive to avoid. But on Sunday, RCB again ended up on the wrong side in Kolkata, and this was not the first time it's happened, as the IPL franchise has created an unwanted record of doing it 29 times, surpassing English County side Middlesex, who had done it 28 times, followed by Punjab Kings (27), Kent (26) and Somerset (24).
