Ireland’s Curtis Campher became only the third player in history to take four wickets in four balls in a Twenty20 International as Ireland romped to a seven-wicket victory in their opening ICC Men’s T20 World Cup fixture against the Netherlands.

Campher’s achievement puts him on a list of three, with Rashid Khan and Lasith Malinga the only other two bowlers to have achieved the feat.
