Not a double hattrick as there was a runout, but still a hattrick and a team double hattrick...very good over, if I may say so myself.

How is it a team double hattrick ? ,I only took five wickets.

Team Triple Hattrick even, I was wrong.

3 straight wickets = hattrick
4 straight wickets = double hattrick
5 straight wickets = triple hattrick
6 straight wickets = quadruple hattrick

Not sure why it works that way, maybe because in a double hattrick there are two hattricks (wickets 123 and wickets 234) and in a triple hattrick there are three (wickets 123 and 234 and 345)

That is opposed to the way that most would think, which is 3 wickets is a hattrick, 6 wickets is a double hattrick.

a double hatrick is taking six wickets in a row its not taking 4 in a row because the 2nd and 3rd wicket are in the first hatrick and shouldnt count in the second

nah a double hat trick is 4 wickets a guy i played cricket against got a double hattrick, 4 wickets in a row the other week, which is pretty stupid cos i reckon hes a pretty **** bowler

 

[Pak_cricketer]

[satishmania]

wow, that may never be beaten!
