- Double Hat-trick
Double Hat-trick is unusual and toughest feats in cricket. A double hat-trick means a bowler grabs 4 wickets on 4 consecutive deliveries in a match. In the international cricket, it has happened only once.
Sri Lankan pacer Lasith Malinga had earned this hat-trick after claiming four wickets on 4 consecutive deliveries of an ODI match. It was the match between South Africa vs Sri Lanka at Guyana in 2007 ICC Cricket World Cup where Malinga dismissed four South African batsmen (Shaun Pollock, Andrew Hall, Jacques Kallis and Makhaya Ntini) on four consecutive deliveries (wickets in last two balls in an over + first two balls in his next over) in between his two overs.
