IPL 2021: The T20 format favours batsmen, but there have been a few instances where world-class bowlers have reversed the tables.
A hat-trick in a T20 game is difficult to achieve since it necessitates precise execution, but several bowlers have proven their worth.
The best bowlers in the world are frequently connected with a spell of three wickets in a row
Hat-tricks have occurred frequently in the Indian Premier League (IPL).
In its 12 successful seasons, the hardest league in cricket has seen a total of 19 hat-tricks by 16 different players.
Lakshmipathy Balaji of the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) scored the first hat-trick in IPL history against Kings XI Punjab in 2008.
Three hat-tricks were scored in the first season, and the same thing happened in the 2017 season.
These are the most hat-tricks ever recorded in a single IPL edition.
Only three seasons of the IPL have gone without a single hat-trick: 2015, 2018 and 2020.
Even a part-time bowler has a hat-trick in this cash-rich competition.
Rohit Sharma, known for hitting maximums, got three wickets in three balls against the side he is presently captaining and has led to five IPL titles.
Amit Mishra, the leg-spinner, has taken three hat-tricks in the IPL, the most by any player in the competition’s history.
