Top 10 highest team totals in T20s

6) Australia (248-6 against England)

The Australians achieved a huge score of 248 for the loss of 6 wickets against England in 2013. Opener Aaron Finch got off to a fiery start, scoring a big century of 156 in 63 deliveries, that included 14 sixes and 11 boundaries.

Shane Watson’s cameo of 37 in just 16 deliveries helped the Australians to reach this total against a decent English bowling line-up. Australia maintained a run rate of 12.40 runs per over and made it an uphill task for England to achieve.

In reply, England gave a good fight to the Australians, scoring 209 runs but fell well short of the required rate as Australia sealed a victory of 39 runs. Mitchell Johnson, Josh Hazlewood, and James Faulkner bowled well against a gritty England team and ensured victory for Australia.

Aaron Finch was given the Man of the Match award for his exceptional innings at the top of the order.
