Overview
- Curtis Campher became the first male professional bowler to dismiss five batsmen in five consecutive deliveries during Munster Reds’ Inter-Provincial T20 Trophy match.
- He finished with figures of 5 for 16 from 2.3 overs at Dublin’s Pembroke Cricket Club, triggering North-West Warriors’ collapse from 87 for 5 to 88 all out.
- The 26-year-old captain also top-scored with a 44-run innings in Munster’s 188-7 total, making him the sixth men’s T20 skipper to record 40+ runs and five wickets in the same match.
- Munster Reds secured a 100-run victory that propelled them to the summit of Cricket Ireland’s Inter-Provincial T20 Trophy standings.
- The feat builds on Campher’s four-in-four spell at the 2021 T20 World Cup and mirrors a previous five-in-five performance by Zimbabwe’s Kelis Ndhlovu at under-19 level.
