Regarding Hatrick in cricket?

Question

If a bowler takes the last 2 wickets of the first over in successive balls and takes the first wicket of the 2nd over with his 1st ball, does this go down as a hat-trick? Did such any hatrick happens in oneday international.

Answer 1

No problems with that. You have a lot of instances like that.

Answer 2

Yeah its considered as a hatrick, did u watch the 2007 WC, Lasith Malinga's 4 wicket hatrick, was also the same...
1 wicket the overs last ball then other 3 wick in the next overs first 3 balls... dont remember well, its something like that i guess...
but that was soooooo cool... oh... i still love to see that moment in youtube... thats marvellous...

Answer 3

When a wicket is taken on each of three consecutive deliveries by the same bowler, it is a hat-trick.

Here is a real good one from a Test match:

Merv Hughes, 1988-89 Aus v WI at WACA, "completed a 'complicated' hat trick in three different overs. He had Curtly Ambrose caught behind with the last ball of one over, ended West Indies' first innings by removing Patrick Patterson with his first ball of the next and more than a day later completed his hat-trick by trapping Gordon Greenidge lbw with the first ball of West Indies' second innings."

That means, his hat-trick came from 3 overs and 2 innings....


In 1-Day Internationals, I think this may be the only one:

Kapil Dev, India v Sri Lanka, Asia Cup, 1990-91

"In recent years, India have been none too special in one-day finals, with 15 defeats in their last 16 completed tournaments dating back to 1998-99. But it wasn't always thus, and in January 1991, Kapil Dev helped to add another piece of silverware to his country's trophy-room. The tournament in question was the grandly named Asia Cup, although Pakistan's absence on safety grounds did weaken the field somewhat. After dispatching of Bangladesh in the qualifying round, Sri Lanka were India's opponents and, in a match shortened by rain, Kapil wrecked the middle order with a hat-trick spread over two overs. Roshan Mahanama, Sanath Jayasuriya and Ravi Ratnayake were his victims as Sri Lanka tottered from 150 for 3 to 204 all out, and ultimately a seven-wicket defeat. "

Answer 4

Yes it's considered as an Hat Trick

Answer 5

The bowler should take a wicket in each of his three
consecutive deliveries.It can be in
1.The same over(three consecutive deliveries) or
2.Two overs(eg.two wickets in the last two balls of one over
and one wicket in the first ball of his next over) or
3.In two matches(eg.two wickets in his last two balls in one match and the third wicket in his first ball of the next match he plays)

Once Kapil had taken a hatrick as you mentioned.
