England's premier all-rounder Sam Curran showcased his exemplary form with the ball as he registered a clinical hattrick in Oval Invincible's The Hundred 2024 encounter against London Spirit at the iconic Lord's Cricket Ground in London. The left-arm pacer dismissed Liam Dawson, Olly Stone and Andre Russell to complete his hattrick at the home of cricket.
Watch- Sam Curran's sensational hattrick with Russell's wicket
The incident occurred during the 18th set of London Spirit's innings when they had just lost skipper Dan Lawrence for a quick-fire 18-ball 27.
Oval skipper Sam Billings' decision to bring Curran into the attack paid rich dividends for the defending champions, as the seamer dismissed Matthew Critchley for a duck.
On his next delivery, Curran got rid of Olly Stone before bringing up his hattrick with the prized scalp of Andre Russell.
From over the wicket, Curran bowled a full-length ball outside the off stump, as Russell went for a big hoik over the off side.
However, the swashbuckling finisher only managed an outside edge, with Billings taking a simple catch behind the stumps.
Earlier, Curran emerged as Oval's saviour with the bat, slamming a blistering 22-ball 51. Riding on his all-round exploits, the defending champions defeated the Spirit by 30 runs, securing their third victory of the season.
