List of Twenty20 International cricket hat-tricks
A hat-trick in cricket is when a bowler takes three wickets from consecutive deliveries. It is a relatively rare event in Twenty20 International (T20I) cricket with only 13 occurrences in over 1,000 matches.[1]
The first Twenty20 hat-trick was taken by Brett Lee of Australia, playing against Bangladesh in Cape Town on September 2007.[1][2] Lasith Malinga is the only bowler with multiple T20I hat-tricks. His first hat-trick was achieved against Bangladesh in 2017[3] and his second hat-trick occurred in September 2019 against New Zealand.[4]
Rashid Khan and Lasith Malinga are the only bowlers to take four wickets in four balls in T20 cricket, Khan achieving this feat against Ireland in February 2019,[5] and Malinga duplicating it against New Zealand in September 2019.[4]
Deepak Chahar's hat trick in November 2019 against Bangladesh came during the then best figures in T20 Internationals.[6]
