This is a
list of all hat-tricks in One-Day International cricket; that is, the occasions when a
bowler has taken three
wickets in consecutive
deliveries in a
One Day International (ODI)
cricket match,
dismissing three different
batsmen with three consecutive balls
bowled. A hat-trick is a relatively rare event: only 24 hat-tricks have been taken in over 2,500 ODIs since the first ODI, between
Australia and
England on
5 January 1971.
The first ODI hat-trick (#1 in the list below) was taken by Jalal-ud-Din of Pakistan, playing against Australia in the 158th ODI in September 1982; the most recent (#24) was taken by Lasith Malinga of Sri Lanka, playing against South Africa in the 2556th ODI, during the 2007 Cricket World Cup.
Notable ODI hat-tricks
- Wasim Akram (#4, #5) and Saqlain Mushtaq (#10, #13) of Pakistan, and Chaminda Vaas (#14, #16) of Sri Lanka, are the only cricketers to have taken two ODI hat-tricks.
- Wasim Akram and Mohammad Sami (#15), also of Pakistan, are the only cricketers to have taken a hat-trick in Test cricket and ODIs.
- Uniquely, Wasim Akram has also taken two Test hat-tricks, making four international hat-tricks in all.
- Saqlain Mushtaq (#10) is also the only spinner to have taken an ODI hat-trick.
- Aaqib Javed (#7) of Pakistan is the youngest player to take an ODI hat-trick, against India on 25 October 1991, aged 19 years and 81 days. The oldest is Eddo Brandes (#11) of Zimbabwe, against England on 3 January 1997, aged 33 years and 305 days.
- Chaminda Vaas is the only bowler to have taken a hat-trick in the first three balls of an ODI. He went on to take a 4th wicket just 2 balls after his hat-trick.
- No player has yet taken a hat-trick on their ODI debut.
- Sri Lankan Lasith Malinga is the only bowler to have taken more than three consecutive wickets; he took four wickets in four balls in the 2007 World Cup Super 8 match against South Africa.
- Brett Lee has taken a hat-trick in ODI and Twenty20 Cricket. Lee is also the first person to take a hat-trick in International Twenty20
