A bowler can go through his cricketing life without a sniff of a hat-trick, to others it happens. But to get four wickets in four consecutive balls at any level of cricket is no mean feat – and on Friday, the 13th!
Stanley Wells, who is 10, was playing for Bexley Colts’ under-11s against Bexleyheath, when he produced his his remarkable effort.
His first over was a maiden, followed by a truly remarkable second of four wickets off the first four balls, a very close miss with his fifth ball and no score off his last delivery.
Stanley has represented London Schools, Green-wich District and Kent County, and is a lad with certainly good prospects for the future, so watch this space!
