Cricketing folklore, in a spellbinding display, will be placed in Ireland Curtis Kapoor Unprecedented: T20 match took five wickets in five balls, which became the first male cricketer in professional cricket to fulfill this achievement. The historic moment appeared at the Pambroke Cricket Club in Dublin, where Camphor Munter Reds faced against the north-western warriors in the Inter-Personal T20 Trophy.
Sequence: Here is how Curtis Camper made history
Chasing a difficult target of 189, the north-west warriors were being caught at 87 for 5. Enter camphor, whose right arm medium speed will soon destroy the opposition and leave fans and players equally in mistrust.
Ball 1 (12th over, penaltimet ball): Jredday Wilson was bowled by a sharp Inswinger, who was to come.
Ball 2 (12th over, last ball): Graham Hume was implicated with a leg-wicket by another Inswinger, giving Kapoor two wickets in two balls.
Ball 3 (14th over, First Ball): Returning to a hat-trick, Kapoor dismissed Andy McBrin, who missed a slog for deep midwick- Hate-trick puris.
Ball 4 (14th over, second ball): Robbie Miller was caught a delivery outside the off-stump.
Ball 5 (14th over, third ball): Josh Wilson was bowled, historic five-five and sparking wild ceremonies were sealed.
The warriors fell brilliantly, exiting 87 to 5 to 88 in just 13.3 overs. Campher’s final figures: 5 wickets for 16 runs in 2.3 overs – a mantra for record books.

Camper opens about its magical mantra
Speaking after the match, Kapoor said, “Due to the change of overs, I was not really sure what was happening. I just clung to my guns and kept it real simple, and fortunately it stopped in a way.” 26 -year -old, who was only making her second appearance after recovering from a finger injury, said, “Performing on one side, it is really good to be around the boys. When you get injured, it is a dark place, so coming back is really good.”

A rare achievement in cricket
While four wickets in four balls have been obtained by some selected people, including themselves, who did this in the 2021 T20 World Cup – any male cricketer never took five wickets in five balls in a professional match. The only other example in professional cricket came into women’s cricket, when Zimbabwe’s Kalis Nadlovu completed the tricks for Zimbabwe U1 in 2024.
