Punjab Kings (PBKS) wrist spinner Yuzvendra Chahal picked his second hat-trick of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Chahal achieved that feat during their clash against Chennai Super Kings in match 49 of the IPL 2025. Chahal picked up four wickets in his over to turn the tables for PBKS.
Deepak Hooda, Anshul Kamboj and Noor Ahmed were the three batters who got out on Chahal's three consecutive deliveries. He finished with figures of 4/32 in three overs as CSK got all out for 190 in 19.2 overs. The leg-spinner came on to bowl the 19th over of the innings as captain Shreyas Iyer brought him on against MS Dhoni.
Chahal started the over with a wide and later got hammered for a six on his first legal delivery by CSK skipper MS Dhoni. However, he made a comeback by dismissing him, getting him out caught at long off. Following his dismissal, Deepak Hooda walked to the crease and got off the mark with a couple of runs on the third ball.
However, he managed to stay at the crease for two balls as he ended up slicing the ball to Priyansh Arya at point. Anshul Kamboj became Chahal’s next victim as he was left stunned by the wrist spinner and lost his stumps. Noor Ahmed walked in to face the last ball of the over and ended up misjudging Chahal's delivery towards long on, where Marco Jansen took an easy catch to help Chahal complete
With that four-wicket haul, Chahal surpassed Sunil Narine to become the bowler with 4-plus wicket hauls in the IPL. Chahal has nine four-plus wicket hauls whereas Sunil Narine picked more then four wickets for eight times.
