A quiet day in the cricket today, with only Sri Lanka playing Bangladesh. The game isn't over yet, but Sri Lanka are cruising to what may be a ten wicket victory . In this match, Sri Lanka continue to look extremely good, and Bangladesh continue to look terrible. The match started with Sri Lankan bowler Chaminda Vaas taking a hat trick with the first three balls of the match. Hat tricks, in which a bowler takes a wicket with three consecutive balls, are fairly uncommon. A top notch player with who plays a long career might achieve the feat once. There have been 16 hat tricks achieved in 1950 one day international games played. (This is the second time Vaas has done it). Nobody has ever done it with the first three balls of a match before. It will be interesting to find out of anyone has ever done it with the first three balls of a match in any other class of cricket. I am sure that statistics books are today being checked.
