Ireland's Curtis Campher has made history by becoming the first male player to take five wickets from five balls in a professional match.

The 26-year-old achieved the feat, which was spread across to separate overs, while in action for the Munster Reds in their Inter-Provincial T20 Trophy victory over the North-West Warriors in Dublin.
