- Hat-trick in two balls
“Hat-trick in two balls” is one of the rare incidents in cricket. In the international cricket, it has not happened yet but in professional cricket, i.e FC or domestic cricket, it happened already in twice.
The “Hat-trick in two balls” means a bowler picks up three wickets in two legal balls. It means the bowler must have taken one wicket on wide delivery and other two wickets came via two legal deliveries. “Stump out” is the most common dismissal on wide delivery, on which bowlers can claim that wicket.
Wayamba left-arm pacer Isuru Udana had achieved the “Hat-trick in two balls” in the Champions League T20 2010 while Rajasthan Royals leg-spinner Pravin Tambe has achieved this feat in the IPL 2014. Udana had achieved this feat against the Central Districts Stags while Tambe had claimed that rare feat against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).
