^ On 17 June 2018, a T20I between Scotland and Ireland was ended in a tie, though no Super Over was played. It was the tenth T20I match to end in a tie, and the first since the ICC playing conditions were implemented in September 2017 not to end with a Super Over. This occurred again on 21 April 2021 in a T20I match between Malaysia and the Netherlands. Games between Malta and Gibraltar on 25 October 2021, and between New Zealand and India on 22 November 2022, ended in a tie with no Super Over possible due to rain.
