Test Hat-tricks: Full list of bowlers to record hat-tricks in Test cricket after Scott Boland’s feat against West Indies

Boland started the 13th over with a wicket of Justin Greaves. The batter playing on 11 of 23, played for an inswinger, but the ball kept straight after pitching and took a healthy nick outside off and went straight to lanky Beau Webster at second slip. Interestingly, Greaves’s 11 made him the highest run-getter for West Indies in the innings. The No. 9 batter, Shamar Joseph, was trapped in front off a nip-backer from Boland to give him his second scalp in as many deliveries. Then came vice captain Jomel Warrican, who was cleaned up by a beautiful slower delivery, one that jadded back a mile to find a big bat-pad gap.

Earlier, it was Mitchell Starc’s fiery burst in the opening spell, which saw West Indies reduced to 11/6 as the left-hander completed his five-wicket haul in just 15 deliveries.

Boland’s hat-trick is the second one this year after Pakistan’s Noman Ali also picked three wickets in three deliveries against the same West Indies earlier in January.

Fred Spofforth was the first player to record a hat-trick in cricket. Playing for Australia, the right-arm pacer from New South Wales took a hat-trick against England in 1879.

Among Indians, Harbhajan Singh, Irfan Pathan and Jasprit Bumrah have registered hat-tricks in Test cricket.
