Sohag Gazi, first in Test to Ton up and hat-trick

[BallOil]

Even as the first Test meandered to a draw, Bangladesh had plenty of reasons to celebrate, not least among them Sohag Gazi's performance on the final day. A Test hat-trick, only the second by a Bangladesh bowler, gave him a singular place in cricket history - he became the first cricketer to score a hundred and take a hat-trick in a Test. That wasn't the only record he claimed.

When Mushfiqur Rahim managed to latch on to a rebound off his chest, to get rid of BJ Watling off the third ball of the 85th over, Gazi became only the third player in this decade to score a hundred and take five wickets in a Test, after R Ashwin and Shakib Al Hasan.

Having taken two wickets off successive balls in that over, Gazi then went on to complete a hat-trick, courtesy a one-handed catch at first slip by Shakib, who dived forward to catch the ball close to the ground.

This yute made his debut against us last year and got a 6fer!!..so clearly he's getting better and better!!..not sure he can cut it in foreign conditions though.

His FC numbers are good, 5 wickets per match! I think he took a 9for on debut and yes 6for in the second innings.

Was there not a debutant for Bangladesh who scored a ton or was that an ODI?

[AFRO]

Yeah that bowler guy scored a damn ton against us!! . Man they had some good debuts but still ended losing 2-0!! .
