Lowest score in T20 cricket history and T20 final

We have seen a team's batting collapse many times in a final match in the last one year. The best example of this is the final of Asia Cup 2023, when Sri Lanka's batting line up proved to be a huge flop. The Sri Lankan team was bowled out for 50 runs in the final of Asia Cup 2023. Team India won this match and tournament by 10 wickets. Now a similar incident has been seen in another final match. However, this was not an international match, but a T20 league match. In this match, while chasing the target of 230 runs, one team was reduced to 16 runs. Due to such a shameful defeat in the final match, the team also made many unwanted records in its name. Let us know.
