Teams With Most Losses After Conceding 300 In ODIs

Teams With Most Losses After Conceding 300 In ODIs: As a fielding team when you concede over 300 runs in a 50 over game, you are more likely to end up on the losing side. In early days of cricket scoring 300 was once considered an improbable task but now after the advent of the T20 cricket and the introduction of powerplay field restrictions batters have adapted an aggressive approach while batting and we are getting to see the score of 300 attained quite regularly. Now let us take a look at The Teams With Most Losses After Conceding 300 In ODIs: 7. New Zealand – 25 New Zealand.

They have always been a good bowling unit and that is a reason why they have lost just 25 matches after conceding three hundred plus runs in ODI cricket. It is really appreciable that New Zealand is languishing at the bottom in the list despite cricket turning into a batsman’s game. 6. West Indies – 27 West Indies.

It is commendable that West Indies, despite having played limited overs cricket right from the day of its foundation have lost only 27 matches conceding 300. West Indies have produced their share of great bowlers like Courtney Walsh, Curtly Ambrose, Sir Andy Roberts, etc. 5. Pakistan – 34: Pakistan.

The flat pitches offer very little assistance to the bowlers, that is one of the reasons why Asian teams have conceded more 300 plus runs. But it is a little surprising considering the fact that bowlers like Akhtar, Wasim and Younis are Pakistani production. 4. Bangladesh – 34: Bangladesh.

They’ve not produced much bowlers of the best quality barring a few like Shakib and Mashrafe Mortaza. They feature at the 4th place in the list with 34 losses. 3. India – 39: India.

Barring Zaheer, Srinath and Venkatesh not many Indian pacers make it to the elite league of bowlers. Also the flat and dropping wickets of India haven’t helped them either. 2. Zimbabwe – 40: Zimbabwe. (© Getty Images) Zimbabwe have been forced to accept the infamous tag of minnows for a long time now. They have had only a few great bowlers in their ranks over the years like Heath Streak and Henry Olanga. Apart from that, they have not produced much bowlers that meets the requirements to be called a world class bowler. They are the second in the list with 40 losses after conceding over 300 runs in the first innings. 1. Sri Lanka – 48: Sri Lanka. ( © Getty Images) Sri Lanka have the infamous record of having lost the most number of matches after conceding three hundred runs. It is surprising given the fact that they have produced world class bowlers like Chaminda Vaas, Muttiah Muralitharan, etc. The stat is also a reflection of the modern game where the batsmen have resorted to more of aggressive batting. Of late, Sri Lanka’s bowling has been less impressive. It was against Sri Lanka that Rohit Sharma scored 264 runs. They have lost 48 matches after having conceded 300 runs.
