ICC World Cup Qualifiers 2023: Sri Lanka’s Wanindu Hasaranga has set a world record with his brilliant bowling performance in the ongoing ODI World Cup Qualifiers in Zimbabwe. Batting first in this match against Ireland, Sri Lanka scored 325 runs. After this, the Ireland team waved the bat and faltered in the Hasaranga attack.

Vanindu Hasaranga, who had bowled 10 overs, scored 79 runs and took 5 wickets. Along with this, he created the world record of taking 5 wickets consecutively. That too equals the 32-year-old record.

That is, in 1990, Pakistan pacer Waqar Younis set a world record by taking five wickets in three consecutive matches in ODI cricket. Waqar, who took 5 wickets for 11 runs against New Zealand, was brilliant after that in the matches against West Indies (5/16, 5/52) by taking 5 wickets back to back.

Now Vanindu Hasranga has taken 5 wickets three times in a row in ODI World Cup qualifiers. The Lankan spinner who took 5 wickets against UAE (6/24) and Oman (5/13) has now also taken 5 wickets against Ireland.

Through this, Vanindu Hasaranga has created the world record of being the first spinner to take 5 wickets three times in a row in ODI cricket. He is also the 2nd bowler in the world to achieve this feat.
