The record for the lowest total belongs to the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), who were bowled out for just 49 runs in 2017 against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at Eden Gardens, with not a single batsman reaching double figures. Following RCB, the Rajasthan Royals scored 58 runs against RCB in 2009, where Anil Kumble took an impressive 5 wickets for just 5 runs. The Royals also recorded a total of 59 runs in 2023 against RCB, showcasing their struggle in high-pressure situations.
