This is how Shadab took a hattrick

Shadab Khan achieved the feat of taking a hat-trick in his last over. When he came on attack in the 15th over, on the fourth ball he got the opposing captain Hasaranga caught out by Muhammad Wasim. After this Agha Salman came to the crease and Shadab bowled him out on the very first ball.

Pawan Ratnanayake came to the crease and Shadab took a hat-trick by getting him out LBW. You will be surprised to know that the Kandy team lost its last 6 wickets in just 12 balls. As a result, the team suffered a huge defeat of 51 runs.
