Highest and Lowest ODI totals of all the teams
ODI cricket has witnessed array of high and low scoring games in its history.
9. South Africa
439/2 vs WI in 2015
69/10 vs AUS 1993
South Africa’s 439 was completely a murderous affair for West Indies wherein Hashim Amla, Rilee Rossouw, and Ab De Villiers scored staggering hundreds. De Villiers who was perhaps in the form of his life scored 149 runs in just 44 deliveries, wherein there were in total of nine fours and 16 sixes being hit. De Villiers also registered the record of fastest ODI hundred in this innings as well. South Africa on the other hand, convincingly won the match by 148 runs.
Speaking about South Africa’s lowest ODI score, then it was in Benson & Hedges World series back in 1992-93. Kangaroos tumbled them out on a score of 69 runs while Proteas chased a nominal target of 173 set by the Australians.
Paul Reiffel of Australia bowled a remarkable spell off eight overs in which he took four wickets with an economy of less than 2. Skipper Kepler Wessels and Hansie Cronje were the only two batsmen who crossed a double-figure mark.
