5 wickets in 5 balls! Ireland's Campher second player to achieve milestone, THIS Zimbabwe player was first

<p>Joshua Little joined an elite club of bowlers during Ireland's last league stage match in the Super 12 round of the T20 World Cup 2022 edition on Friday (November 04). In Ireland's face-off versus table-toppers New Zealand, at the&nbsp;Adelaide Oval, Adelaide, Little became only the sixth bowler in T20 WC history to claim a hat-trick (removing Kane Williamson, Jimmy Neesham and Mitchell Santner, respectively). In addition, he joined Curtis Campher to become only the second Irishman to achieve this feat in tournament history. Campher had taken a hat-trick in the 2021 edition, versus the Netherlands.&nbsp;</p>

NZ vs IRE: Joshua Little becomes 2nd Irish bowler to take hat-trick in T20 World Cup after Curtis Campher

<p>Johannesburg-born seamer Curtis Campher became only the third bowler to claim four wickets in four balls in T20Is as a superior Ireland beat Netherlands by seven wickets in their first round Group A T20 World Cup match here on Monday.</p>

<p>Thanks to Campher's exploits with the white ball, Ireland bundled out Netherlands for 106 after the Dutch had decided to bat. Ireland chased down the target with as many as 29 balls to spare at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium.</p>

<p>Gareth Delany (44) and Paul Stirling (30 not out) were the significant contributors with the bat for the Irish team that had lost its T20 World Cup games to the same opponents in 2014 and 2016.</p>

<p>Earlier, bowling the 10th over of the Netherlands innings, the 22-year-old Campher left the Netherlands innings in disarray when he dismissed Colin Ackermann, Ryan ten Doeschate, Scott Edwards and Roelof van der Merwe off successive balls. He was bowling his second over for the day, having gone for 12 runs first up.</p>

<p>Ackermann was out caught behind on review, having played an attempted pull off a shortish ball that seemed to be going down leg.</p>

<p>The seasoned Ten Doeschate, best remembered for his incredible century against England in the 2011 World Cup, was out for a duck, trapped in front by a full and straight one.</p>

<p>Edwards too fell lbw as DRS (decision review system) tracked the ball hitting the leg stump. For his final wicket, van der Merwe played on to his stumps a widish delivery, leaving the Irish camp in a state of frenzy.</p>

<p>Netherlands were in all sorts of trouble at 51 for six after Campher's multiple blows but opener Max ODowd (51) battled on amid the slide at the other end.&nbsp;During his 51-ball knock, ODowd hit seven boundaries.</p>

Ireland all-rounder Curtis Campher scripted a historic feat in his side's clash against Netherlands in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2021 on Monday (October 18). Campher ran riot against the Neherlands batting line-up with four wickets in four consecutive deliveries. Playing his maiden T20I game for Ireland, the all-rounder dismissed four Netherlands batters in succession to get his team off to a stunning start. Campher dismissed Colin Ackermann, Ryan ten Doeschate, Scott Edwards and Roelof van der Merwe in succession in the 10th over of the Ireland innings to become the first bowler in the history of the T20 World Cup to pick four wickets in four balls. He joined the likes of Lasith Malinga and Rashid Khan to become only the third bowler overall to achieve the feat in T20Is.
