Ireland captain Paul Stirling's international T20 career spans over 15 years. Stirling has been out for 0 runs only 13 times after playing 144 outings. Even though he holds the embarrassing world record of getting out for 0 runs in international T-20, Stirling can complain that after playing so many matches for so many years, it can be a little bit!
But what will Soumya Sarkar excuses for his failure? The international T20 career of the opening batter is almost half the age of Stirling. About half the number of matches and innings also. But being out for 0 runs, Soumya and Stirling are now level.
Soumya now holds the world record of being dismissed for 0 runs in the international T20.
Thinking that Stirling can survive, he gets a partner! How many days alone is it possible to wear the thorny crown of zero! Stirling can say a thank you to Soumya.
