Lowest Team Total IPL 2024

IPL and T20 cricket is not always about high scoring games where fours and sixes are galore. There have been instances since the start of IPL where bowlers have dominated and have bowled out teams for paltry totals. This shows the unpredictability nature of the T20 format.

There have been quite a few low team totals where a team's innings faltered at the face of some brilliant bowling, with wickets falling in a hurry and finally folding up to a low score. These low team totals also serve as a reminder that matches in IPL are not always high scoring affairs. The high and low scores suggest the narrative of the sport, where there is uncertainty.

The lowest total of 49 was registered by Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 2017 edition at Eden Gardens. After bowling Kolkata Knight Riders out for 131, RCB were bundled out for 49. The second lowest total scored is 58 by Rajasthan Royals against RCB in 2009. The recent one being in 2023, where the Royals were all out for 59 against RCB at their home ground Jaipur.

The lowest team total in IPL 2024 has been Mumbai Indians' 125 for 9 against Rajasthan Royals at Wankhede Stadium. There have been seven instances in IPL history where teams have been bowled out under 70 runs. This shows that sometimes good bowling can trump aggressive batting.

While the low totals are moments to forget for the teams involved, however, they serve as enduring reminders of the drama and unpredictability nature of the IPL. Also, they serve as catalysts for thrilling comebacks and underdog stories, where teams have bounced back from adversity with grit and determination. They inject an element of suspense and unpredictability into the IPL, keeping fans on the edge of their seats and reminding everyone that in cricket, anything can happen.
