That’s right, I’ve no doubt in my mind that Wasim Akram has got to the bowler who’s been “on a hat-trick” (i.e 2 wickets in 2 balls) the most number of times in a cricketing career. It’s no recognised “feat”, but is definitely more than a pleasure to watch! I can recall seeing him do this at least 17-18 times (most recently against AUS and NAM last week); and I’m sure there have been more instances of double-strikes.
Does anyone have statistics on this?
