Most Ducks in a Men’s T2OI Tournament

1. Saim Ayub: Saim Ayub has set an unwanted world record for the most ducks by a male batter in a single T20I tournament among full member nations, with four ducks in the Asia Cup 2025. The 23-year-old Pakistani left-handed top-order batter was dismissed for zero four times in just six innings during the tournament, becoming the first player from a full member nation to achieve this dubious feat in a T20I series or tournament. In total, Ayub has accumulated nine ducks in 47 T20I matches, placing him second on Pakistan’s list for most ducks behind Umar Akmal.
2. Mashrafe Mortaza; Mashrafe Mortaza holds the record for the second most ducks in a Men’s T20I tournament for full member nations, having been dismissed for a duck 3 times in the Asia Cup 2016. This record highlights an unusual and unfortunate aspect of Mortaza’s batting performances in major T20I tournaments among full member teams.
3. Andre Fletcher: Andre Fletcher holds the record for the 3rd most ducks in a men’s T20 International tournament among players from full member nations, with a total of 3 ducks during the ICC World Twenty20 tournament in England in 2009.
4. Regis Chakabva: Regis Chakabva holds the record for the 4th most ducks in a Men’s T20 International tournament with 3 ducks among full member nations, having scored three ducks during the T20 World Cup 2022. Chakabva’s three ducks highlight a challenging tournament for the Zimbabwean wicketkeeper-batsman, underscoring the difficulties even experienced players face in the fast-paced T20 format. His tally of ducks in that tournament places him prominently in this rare statistical category.
5. Tanzid Hasan: Tanzid Hasan holds the record for the 5th most ducks in a Men’s T20 International tournament among full member nations, having been dismissed without scoring 3 times during the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. This unfortunate record highlights a challenging aspect of his performances in that tournament despite his talents as a batsman.
