Actually, South Africa is the only team in the 2026 T20 World Cup whose batsman has not got a duck (out on 0). Batsmen of other teams have faced ducks one or more times. This achievement makes South Africa unique in this list. (PHOTO CREDIT- PTI)
On the other hand, T20 World Cup 2026 has become an unwanted record for Team India. So far in the tournament, both India and Italy have suffered a total of 8 ducks each, which is the highest among all the 20 teams. The biggest reason for this is the continuous poor form of Indian opener Abhishek Sharma. (PHOTO CREDIT- PTI)
Abhishek Sharma has faced ducks in three consecutive matches in the tournament. He has been out without opening an account against America, Pakistan and Netherlands, which remains a matter of concern for him. He is also the batsman who has been out on duck the most number of times in this edition. (PHOTO CREDIT- PTI)
At the same time, South Africa has won all four of its matches in the group stage and has reached the Super-8 by being on top. In their batting lineup, players like Quinton de Kock, Ryan Rickleton, Aiden Markram, Tristan Stubbs are continuously scoring runs. Now he will face India, West Indies and Zimbabwe in Super-8.
