The following notes are of importance while analysing the hat tricks in the annals of test cricket. Allom, Petherick and Fleming did the hat-trick on debut. Fleming did not play the next test due to injury. The second Trumble and the Griffin hat-tricks were in the final Test of these players. The Walsh, Hughes and Lawson hat-tricks involved two innings. Matthews did the hat-trick in each innings. Petherick has the most expensive innings analysis of somebody doing the hat trick (3 for 103).Largest total to include a hat-trick is 537 by Pakistan at Rawalpindi, 1994-95. Least number of career Test wickets for a bowler doing a hat- trick is 6 by Alok Kapali. Zoysa’s hat-trick was from the first three balls he delivered in the Test. Pathan took his hat-trick in the first over of the Test.
