South Africa’s Madison Landsman took the first U19 Women’s T20 World Cup hat-trick during the match against Scotland in Benoni on Monday.
The leg-spinning all-rounder stepped up to bowl the 15th over of Scotland’s innings, with the run rate climbing but the chase still alive in what had been a tight encounter.
But the 18-year-old took three wickets in three balls to leave the Scots reeling on 60-8.
The South Africans went on to claim a 44-run win, their first of the tournament.
