A hat-trick in cricket is when a bowler takes three wickets from consecutive deliveries. It is a relatively rare event in men's Twenty20 International (T20I) cricket with only 61 occurrences as of 23 June 2024.[1]
The first Twenty20 hat-trick was taken by Brett Lee of Australia, playing against Bangladesh in Cape Town in September 2007.[1][2]
Rashid Khan, Lasith Malinga, Curtis Campher and Jason Holder are the only bowlers to take four wickets in four balls in T20Is, Khan achieving this feat against Ireland in February 2019,[3] and Malinga repeating the achievement against New Zealand in September 2019.[4] On 18 October 2021 at 2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup, Campher achieved the feat against the Netherlands[5] On 30 January 2022, Holder achieved this feat against England.[6][7]
On 6 August 2021, Nathan Ellis picked up three wickets off the last three balls of Bangladesh innings to become the first male cricketer to take a hat-trick on his debut in a T20I match.[8]
