Cummins ‘had no idea’ about hattrick feat, joins exclusive club

By Redoy K

Australian fast bowler Pat Cummins achieved a historic hat-trick in the T20 World Cup match against Bangladesh in Antigua. He became the second Australian and seventh player overall to accomplish this feat in the tournament. Cummins finished with figures of 3/29, helping Australia restrict Bangladesh to 140/8. Australia was at 100/2 in 11.2 overs when rain stopped play, winning by 28 runs via DLS method. A win against Afghanistan in their next match will secure Australia’s semi-final spot.
