2 hat-tricks within 14 hours. Something similar happened in the T20 World Cup 2024, where after Australia's legendary fast bowler Pat Cummins' second consecutive hat-trick, England's star pacer Chris Jordan also did this feat. In the crucial Super-8 match, Jordan took 4 wickets including a hat-trick in the last over against the USA and bundled out the USA for just 115 runs.
England needs a big win in this match to reach the semi-finals and Jordan made his important contribution for this task.In this match being played in Bridgetown, Barbados, USA batted first but USA, which had shown a strong performance in the group stage, could not repeat that performance in the Super-8 and the team's wickets kept falling from the beginning till the end. England's experienced spinner Adil Rashid took care of the top and middle order while Jordan did the job of wrapping up the innings.
Australian pacer Pat Cummins made a record by taking a hat-trick against Afghanistan.
About 14 hours later, Jordan did the same feat. Jordan, who came to bowl in the last over, took 4 wickets in 5 balls, which included a hat-trick. Jordan took the wicket of Corey Anderson on the very first ball of the over. No runs were scored on the next ball.Then on the third ball, Jordan bowled Ali Khan. On the fourth ball, Jordan faced Noshatush Kenjige, who was out LBW. Now the last wicket was left and Jordan was on a hat-trick. In front of him was Saurabh Netravalkar holding the bat, who has created a stir with his bowling.
