List of Indian bowlers who have taken a hat-trick in international cricket

#5. Kuldeep Yadav vs Australia at Eden Gardens, 2017

Kuldeep Yadav's hat-trick helped India defeat Australia yesterday

And the most recent inductee to the hat-trick list- Kuldeep Yadav. India managed to put up a score of 252 thanks to fifties from Ajinkya Rahane and skipper Virat Kohli. In reply, Australia lost both their openers to Bhuvneshwar Kumar but Steve Smith and Travis Head put up a partnership of 76 to bring the visitors back on track.

However, Australia lost Travis Head and shortly later, Glenn Maxwell. Steve Smith was going well but he was dismissed for 59 and Australia were 138/5. Things became uglier for the Aussies in the 33rd over when Kuldeep Yadav came in to bowl.

Yadav bowled Wade with a leg-break outside the off stump which took the inside edge and crashed into the stumps. The 22-year old then dismissed Ashton Agar with a dipping full-length delivery which hit his pads in front of the leg stump.

The chinaman completed his hat-trick by dismissing Pat Cummins who in an attempt to defend, edged the delivery to MS Dhoni. Yadav’s hat-trick is the 43rd in ODI cricket and the 86th in international cricket.
