The Indian Premier League (IPL) is often seen as a batsman’s paradise, but bowlers have also created unforgettable moments over the years. Among these, hat-tricks stand out as remarkable feats, Let us look at the bowlers who have achieved it.
Since the tournament’s inception in 2008, a total of 22 hat-tricks have been recorded, proving that bowlers can thrive even in a format dominated by power-hitters. The first-ever IPL hat-trick was taken by Lakshmipathy Balaji while representing Chennai Super Kings (CSK) against Kings XI Punjab (now Punjab Kings) in 2008. His achievement, which came in the final over of the match, remains a historic milestone in IPL history.
