Spain bowled out the Isle of Man for just 10 runs, which is the lowest total by a team ever in T20Is. Spain then took only two balls to finish the match, winning by 10 wickets with 118 balls remaining and completing a dominating win. 

Earlier this year, Sydney Thunder were bowled out for just 15 runs in Big Bash League against Adelaide Strikers. Prior to that, Turkey held the lowest total in T20Is with a score of 21 runs against the Czech Republic in 2019. 

Coming into this match, Spain were leading the 6-match series 4-0 with the 2nd T20I washed out due to rain. However, the Spanish bowlers didn't slow down a bit as Mohammad Kamran and Atif Mehmood picked up 4 wickets each. In a combined 8 overs, 3 overs were maiden while only conceding 10 runs. 

Kamran also picked up a hattrick as the Isle of Man were bowled out quickly. After the hosts opted to field first, Kamran picked up the first wicket off the very first ball. Mehmood dismissed George Burrows via LBW while Kamran picked up a hattrick by dismissing Luke Ward, Edward Beard and Christian Webster to reduce the Isle of Man total to 5 runs for 4 wickets.

When Spain came out to bat, Joseph started with a no-ball against Awais Ahmed. The next delivery, a free hit, was dispatched for a six and the following ball was yet again smacked over the ropes as the hosts chased down the target in 2 balls, winning by 10 wickets and clinching the series 5-0.
