Talk:List of One Day International cricket hat-tricks

Four in four...

Does four wickets in four balls count as separate hat-tricks? (guess why I'm asking ;) )Sam Vimes | Address me 21:11, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

I came to ask the same thing, I'd say it does. StuartH 02:34, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Although I checked cricinfo [1] which only counts it as one, so one can assume that is the position of Wisden. StuartH 02:39, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

It is a double hat trick, he got three consecutive wickets in three consecutive balls twice. Therefore it should be listed as two hat tricks; he got two hat tricks in those four balls not one.

However the ICC and Wisden are the authorities on this. Note that on the cricinfo website listed above does not give Malinga credit for dismissing Ntini as a part of his hat trick. I think this is an oversight on their part, as Ntini's wicket completes a second hat trick regardless of the Pollock dismissal.

At any rate it deserves special mention, and I think there is a case for the next listing to skip a number even if Malinga is not given two separate listings because again, there were two hat tricks, not one. 58.173.52.29 22:29, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Same country holds most recent hat-tricks

Does anyone know when the last time a player from the same country held the most recent hat-tricks in both Test and ODI cricket, as Flintoff and Sidebottom currently do? Bluebellnutter (talk) 23:34, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
