Adelaide, Nov 4 (Ians) Ireland’s left-arm pacer Josh Little on Friday took a sensational hat-trick against New Zealand in their Group 1 match in Super 12s of Men’s T20 World Cup at Adelaide Oval, recording just the second instance of completing a feat like this in the ongoing tournament in Australia.
New Zealand were cruising at 174/3 in the 19th over and looked set for crossing 200-plus when Little removed skipper Kane Williamson, James Neesham and Mitchell Santner on successive deliveries to became only the second Ireland bowler to take a hat-trick in T20 World Cups after his team-mate Curtis Campher achieved the feat last year in Abu Dhabi.
After having Williamson pull straight to fielder in the deep to depart for 61, Little’s consecutive lbw decisions in his favour on the final two deliveries of the over, earned him the unlikely achievement.

Geelong (Victoria), Oct 19 (Ians) In the Icc Men’s T20 World Cup, the Netherlands have emerged as the table toppers of Group A in the first round with back-to-back wins over the UAE and Namibia.
At four points from their successive wins, the Netherlands have placed themselves in a real chance of making the Super 12 stage. But a defeat to Sri Lanka at Geelong on Thursday may end their campaign in the tournament, especially with a low net run rate of 0.149, if the Namibia-uae match isn’t washed out due to bad weather.
With the net run rate being talked about as a deciding factor in the top two finishes of Group A, Netherlands coach Ryan Cook stated he’s fully aware of the role it can play in deciding the destiny of teams in the tournament.
