IPL 2018: Bowlers who have picked hat-tricks in the tournament
We take a look at a few bowlers who have taken hat-tricks in the IPL thus far.
10. Shane Watson – 1
In the seventh edition of the IPL, the lads from Rajasthan accounted to make hat-tricks for more than once as the then skipper Shane Watson, took another hat-trick for the Royals in the same edition after Pravin Tambe. In a game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, the captain lead from the front as he managed to send three Sunrisers’ batsmen off consecutive deliveries back in the pavillion. This was party time for the Royals from Rajasthan as Watson and Rajat Bhatia shared a total of six wickets between them as most of the batsmen from the Hyderabad camp failed to apply themselves.
Watson got Shikhar Dhawan out in the last ball of the fourth over and then sent Moises Henriques and Karn Sharma back to the pavilion in the 17th over. It was a below-par total set by the team from the south as they crumbled to 134 for 9 in their 20 overs. This was a remarkable effort from the bowlers especially from the captain himself on their new home turf for the season Ahmedabad.
