CRICKET
Jaydev Unadkat made a shining comeback for Saurashtra, becoming the first-ever bowler to claim a hattrick in the first over of Ranji Trophy.
Jaydev Unadkat who recently played for Team India against Bangladesh, getting recalled 12 years after his Test debut, has shone brightly for Saurashtra as well. Playing his first match since the Bangladesh tour, Unadkat became the first-ever bowler to pick up a hat trick in the first over of the Ranji Trophy.
The veteran pacer followed in the footsteps of Irfan Pathan who had picked up a hat trick in the first over of a Test match, but Unadkat achieved the incredible feat in India's premier domestic competition for the first time.
The incident took place on Tuesday, January 3, as Saurashtra faced off against Delhi in Rajkot. Unadkat claimed his first wicket as he dismissed Dhruv Shorey on a duck. Vaibhav Rawal was also dismissed shortly afterwards before the 31-year-old completed his hat trick by dismissing Delhi captain Yash Dhull.
He wasn't stopping there as he returned to pick up Jonty Sidhu and Lalit Yadav's wickets as well, in his second over. Having added five wickets to his tally in the first 12 balls, Unadkat's display left fans in awe as they flooded social media with memes.
