— ICC (@ICC) December 16, 2024Australia Test captain Pat Cummins, Waseem Abbas of Malta, Serbia's Mark Pavlovic, New Zealand's Tim Southee, Malinga and now Fennell are the only players to have picked up multiple men's T20I hat-tricks.
Fennell had Troy Taylor caught with the third ball of his fourth over and then trapped Alistair Ifill in front with the very next delivery to reduce Cayman Islands 116/8 in their final over.
India had also emerged victors in the Olympics bronze play-off three years ago in Tokyo. Goalie PR Sreejesh was the hero then in a pulsating 5-4 win over Germany, whom the Indians narrowly lost to in the Paris 2024 semi-finals.
The pacer then got rid of Ronald Ebanks and Alessandro Morris with the final two balls of the innings to make it four wickets in four straight deliveries en route stunning figures of 5/14.
However, Fennell's heroics could not take Argentina to victorymnl168, with the South American side all out for just 94 in reply to Cayman Islands' score of 116.
