While the World Cup is grabbing headlines, a bowler named Brett Randell just did something that hasn’t happened in over two centuries of cricket history. Playing in a domestic match in New Zealand, he took five wickets in five consecutive balls. That’s right—five batters in a row sent back to the pavilion without a single break.
This “jaw-dropping” feat is being called the greatest over in the history of first-class cricket. It’s incredibly rare to even get a hat-trick (three in a row), so doing it five times has left fans and experts completely stunned. It’s a record that might just stand for another 200 years!
