Teams with Most ‘Below-100 Innings Totals’ in Test Cricket

Test cricket can pose an array of challenges in front of batting teams. Batters have to navigate potent bowling attacks, along with the varied playing conditions.

We have seen teams overcome these challenges and tire out the opposition by piling on huge scores. But there have been instances where teams have been bundled out under 100 runs several times.

In this article, we’ll look at the list of teams dismissed below 100 runs the most times in Test cricket.
