35: In 2004, Sri Lanka bundled out Zimbabwe for a mere score of 35 runs, which is the lowest team total in the ODI format.
50: 8 teams have bowled out opponent batting teams for less than or equal to 50 runs.
1: During a 1992 World Cup match, England skittled out Pakistan for 74 runs in the first innings.

This is the only match that didn’t produce any results after the batting team was bowled out for less than 100 runs.
