Yuzvendra Chahal Achieves Never-Seen-Before Record In IPL History By Taking Hattrick Against CSK

Punjab Kings spinner not only broke multiple records by taking hattrick against Chennai Super Kings but also scripted a feat achieved by no one

Chennai: In the era of fast-paced cricket, batters tend to lose their wickets, especially at the back end of the innings, in an attempt to steer the run rate. Thus, hattricks aren’t a very rare phenomenon nowadays. However, Yuzvendra Chahal picked a hat-trick while playing for Punjab Kings against Chennai Super Kings on Tuesday in the IPL 2025 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium and achieved a unique feat.

Chahal’s hat-trick in the 19th over

Chahal picked three wickets in three consecutive deliveries in the penultimate over of the first innings. He dismissed Deepak Hooda (2), Anshul Kambhoj (0), and Noor Ahmad (0) to take hat-trick in the 49th match of the IPL 2025. He also dismissed Dhoni on a score of 11 runs. He finished the match with figures of 32/4 from three overs.
