What is India’s highest total in T20Is?
Ishan Kishan’s astonishing 42-ball century helped power India to a mammoth total of 271 for five in its fifth and final T20I against New Zealand in Thiruvananthapuram on Saturday, January 31.
India’s final total is the third-highest total it has ever registered in T20Is. The highest remains the 297 for six it scored against Bangladesh in Hyderabad. Sanju Samson, whose place in the side is currently under question, scored a century as India mercilessly punished the bowlers on the way to a 133-run win.

- 297/6 vs Bangladesh, Hyderabad (2024)
