Highest totals without a fifty

Chasing West Indies’ mammoth total of 339 for 4, Pakistan managed to score 281 for 9 in their allotted 50 overs in VB Series match at Adelaide. What was intriguing with Pakistan’s effort was the fact that no batsman managed to score a fifty. Pakistan’s total is now the HIGHEST in One-day internationals not to include an individual fifty. The details:
