Cricket is a game of numbers. This slideshow will bring you the most number of losses, irrespective of the number of matches played, by an international team in the T20 format. Prepare yourself to be surprised!
#5 West Indies
The defending champions stand 5th in this list.
The Caribbean giants, who boast of big hitters like Chris Gayle, Darren Sammy and Kieron Pollard, have lost 29 of their 61 matches.
West Indies have a winning percentage of 45.90.
#4 Pakistan
After registering an easy victory against Bangladesh in the ongoing T20 World Cup, Pakistan are just one step closer to register a semi-final spot when they take on the mighty West Indies Tuesday.
The Pakistanis are at the number 4 spot in the list of teams with the most number of losses in the T20 format.
Out of 81 matches, Pakistan have lost 30 of them. They also have an impressive win percentage of 60.49.
#3 Australia
After their woeful defeat to India in their group stage fixture, Australia are out of the tournament, as well.
Though the Baggy Greens have equal number of losses as New Zealand (33 losses), they stand third in the list because of their win percentage of 50, which is higher than the Kiwis.
The Australian team who were once the most dominant team in every format of cricket can't boast the same now with the advent of T20s.
#2 New Zealand
The Black Caps stand second in the highest number of losses in the T20 format.
Having played 75 matches, the Black Caps have had 33 losses, so far. The Kiwi captain Brendon McCullum's remarkable consistency can't cover up for the amount of losses his team has suffered.
New Zealand have a winning percentage of 44.
#1 England
The champions of the 2010 ICC World Twenty20 in West Indies hold the record for the most number of losses: 35 losses in 72 matches with a winning percentage of 45.83. The Three Lions finished second bottom in their group at the ongoing T20 World Cup in Bangladesh with just one win and 3 losses, including a humiliation against the Netherlands.
