Cricket History Made: Two Hat-Tricks in Same T20I Series for First Time

  • For the first time in men's T20I history between full-member nations, two players achieved hat-tricks in the same bilateral series.
  • West Indies' Shamar Springer took his maiden T20I hat-trick against Afghanistan in the third match at Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
  • Springer dismissed Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Rashid Khan, and Shahidullah Kamal consecutively in the 19th over, securing a 15-run win for West Indies.
  • Afghanistan's Mujeeb ur Rahman had previously taken a hat-trick in the second T20I, spanning two overs against West Indies.
  • This rare feat marks only the second instance of two hat-tricks in a T20I series, and the first involving full-member nations.

Why It Matters: Shamar Springer and Mujeeb ur Rahman made T20I history with hat-tricks in the same bilateral series.
