AUS vs BAN, T20 World Cup 2024: Pat Cummins picks hat-trick against Bangladesh; second Australian to achieve feat


Pat Cummins became the second Australian bowler to pick a T20 World Cup hat-trick during the Super Eight clash against Bangladesh at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua on Friday.

The pacer followed the footsteps of Brett Lee who had picked three in three during Australia’s match against the same opponent in 2007.

Cummins’ hat-trick was split over two overs (18th and 20th). He started by forcing Mahmudullah to chop one on. Mahedi Hasan was the next to follow as he top-edged one to deep third. The right-arm pacer completed the feat by having Towhid Hridoy caught at short fine leg.
