Karan Batra - Irfan Pathan against Pakistan in the very 1st over

Tom Connolly - Siddle at the Gabba vs England, put his team on top in a match they should have won

Jaffer Sial - Wasim against Sri Lanka

Waqas Ahmad - Wasim Akram, against Sri Lanka at Dhaka

Shadman Anto Anto - Stuart Broad's against India

Vikrant Jee Harbhajan Singh's hat-trick against Australia is best ever as the match that Australia would have won easily was turned 180 degree by Harbhajan Singh

Scött Jönes - Warney against England. Who could ever forget the 5 foot 2 Tasmanian with the flared pants snapping up the catch off the inside edge for the third wicket? Classic stuff!

Adam James Kramer - Glenn MCGrath Vs West Indies at the WACCA about 2001 - he predicted before the game the manner he would get each three batsman out (S.Campbell, B.Lara & J.Adams from memory), he just didn't predict they'd be off successive balls. It was 'raise the hairs on the back on your neck' stuff!

Gaurav Sharma Glenn McGrath vs the west indies.... victims no 299, 300, 301..... 2nd victim was Brian Charles Lara.

@krishna_bobgall: I remember one early morning watching England vs Australia. Darren Gough took hat trick

@sohaibanees: I remember the whole Gabba going crazy when Peter Siddle got that hat-trick in the first test of ashes last year.

@A_Arora90: Irfan Pathan's hat trick against Pakistan in the very first over of the match. He bowled like a younger version of Wasim Akram.

@toffeedaz: @StuartBroad8 Trent Bridge hat-trick v India was superb, crowd went bonkers, I was shaking hands with complete strangers behind.

@SeanC_75: easy one for me - Warne v Eng - Booney's brilliant catch of Malcom. In car speeding to get home - made it for the last wicket

@briafish: Merv Hughes at the WACA . As I remember it over 3 differeNt overs !

@tp_rose: @Peter_Siddle's on Day 1 of the Ashes last year was pretty special. Shame it all went downhill for us Aussies after that!

@csouradip: I saw Harbhajan pick a hat-trick against Australia at Eden Gardens. #cricket #lovetestcricket
