9 bowlers with more than one hat-trick in international cricket

Trent Boult (2 hat-tricks)

Trent Boult was in fantastic form at the 2019 World Cup where he bagged his latest hat-trick.

The impressive left-arm seamer from New Zealand, who can trouble the best of batsmen on his day, also has a couple of hat-tricks under his belt. The first one was against Pakistan in the first ODI of the series played at Abu Dhabi, on November 7, 2018.

New Zealand posted 266 for 9 on the board batting first, with Ross Taylor making 80 and Tom Latham 68 before Boult jolted Pakistan early in the chase. In the third over of the innings, he clean bowled Fakhar Zaman for 1 with the second delivery and, from the next two balls, had Babar Azam caught by Taylor and Mohammad Hafeez lbw. Pakistan couldn’t recover and went on to lose the game by 47 runs.

Boult’s second hat-trick came in the 2019 World Cup match against Australia at Lord's, on June 29. In the last over of the Australian innings, he had Usman Khawaja bowled for 88, Mitchell Starc cleaned up for 0 and Jason Behrendorff trapped lbw. Starc, however, claimed 5 for 26 to bowl his side victory by 86 runs.
