A rare and unwanted world record emerged in the President’s Trophy First Class Cricket tournament where Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited cricket team (SNGPL) failed to chase a meager target of 40 runs.
As per the details, in the match between Pakistan Television (PTV) and SNGPL, the state broadcaster created history by successfully defending the lowest score in first-class cricket history.
SNGPL needed just 40 runs to win the match but the entire team collapsed for only 37 runs. This made it the first team in first-class cricket history when such a low target was defended.
PTV also broke a 232-year-old record from 1794 when the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) failed to chase a target of 41 runs against Old Field, ESPN reported.
