5 highest scoring T20I matches in recent times

#4 Australia vs Sri Lanka (441 runs)

It was the comeback match for Maxwell in Australian T20 side

On September 6, 2016, Australia went on to score the highest ever team total in T20 international cricket, & that too against the previous record-holders Sri Lanka in their own den.

Batting first on a flat Kandy track, Kangaroos piled up 263/3 in their 20 overs, highly dominated by the big show Glenn Maxwell, who slammed his highest T20 score of 145 (65). He scored 14 fours & 9 sixes in the process.

The island nation never looked settled in the chase, dragging their way to 178/9 (20), thereby losing the one-sided contest by a big margin of 85 runs. It was a night of records, plenty of them broken & new ones set for the future.

Result: Australia beat Sri Lanka by 85 runs
