Yadav leads Thailand to commanding total
Thailand delivered a clinical performance at the Bayuemas Oval in Kuala Lumpur, dismantling Mongolia by 183 runs in Match 10 of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup Asia Sub Regional Qualifier A. After winning the toss and electing to bat, Thailand’s top order took control of the game, setting a formidable target that proved far beyond the reach of the opposition.

Mongolia collapse in record-breaking chase
Facing a daunting target of 197, Mongolia’s reply never gained momentum. The innings was defined by a swift collapse, with the team losing four wickets in the early stages of the chase. The pressure exerted by the Thai bowling attack was immediate and relentless, leaving the Mongolian lineup with no answer to the disciplined line and length.
The turning point arrived early in the third over when Gandemberel Ganbold, who top-scored for his side with a modest 5 off 11 balls, fell at the score of 5. His dismissal effectively signaled the end of any resistance, as the remaining batters struggled to build partnerships or find the boundary. With Bat-yalalt Namsrai and the rest of the order unable to stabilize the innings, Mongolia was bundled out for just 13 runs.
Phanuphong Thongsa and Kamron Senamontree were instrumental in the demolition, ensuring that the victory was as comprehensive as the scorecard suggests. The 183-run margin stands as a testament to Thailand's dominance in all facets of the game, marking a significant result in the context of the 2026 T20 World Cup qualification series.
