Watch: Curtis Campher HATTRICK in T20 World Cup 2021

After scoring 25 runs in the power play, the Netherlands cricket team’s batsman started to counter-attack and it almost looked like the duo of Max ODowd and Colin Ackermann would steady the innings for their team.

However, Curtis Campher, who bowled the 10th over turned the course of the game and became the first bowler ever to take a hat-trick in the ICC T20 World Cup. If this was not enough the pacer joined the likes of Lasith Malinga and Rashid khan and became only the third bowler to take four wickets in four balls in T20Is.

Campher’s hattrick started with a bit of luck as Colin Ackermann was caught down the leg side by wicketkeeper Neil Rock. He then trapped Ryan ten Doeschate in LBW and followed it with a wicket of Scott Edwards in a similar way to complete his hattrick. The right-arm pacer then jolted Netherland with the wicket of Roelof van der Merwe, who threw his hands at the ball and dragged it back to the stumps.
