Kolkata, Feb. 7 -- West Indies all-rounder Romario Shepherd made history during his side's ICC T20 World Cup campaign opener against Scotland, taking a stunning hat-trick, the first-ever by a Windies player in the ICC T20 World Cup.

While defending 183 for his side, Romario generated figures of 5/20 in his three overs. During his 17th over, he got wickets of Matthew Cross, Michael Leask, and Oliver Davidson to complete the hat-trick and concluded the over with another wicket of Safyaan Sharif, making it four wickets in an over.

He has taken West Indies' fourth T20I hat-trick, with Jason Holder (against England, Bridgetown 2022), Shepherd (against Bangladesh, Chattogram, 2025), and Shamar Springer (against Afghanistan in Dubai this year)...
