Indonesia Bowler Makes History In T20I Cricket, Claims Five-Wicket Haul In Single Over To Make World Record

History was made in Bali when an Indonesian cricketer made history. Gede Priandana delivered a sensational spell by scalping five wickets in an over against Cambodia.

Priandana's historic spell jolted the Cambodian batters, leaving them rattled during the chase and helping Indonesia claim a commanding victory in Bali.

Cambodia was firm in the chase as they looked to go past the target of 168. Despite the fall of five wickets, the target looked well in place, and the Cambodian batters looked in fine touch.

That is when Gede Priandana was introduced in the attack, and what happened next was nothing less than historic in the competition.

Following a dot ball, Priandana dismissed Mongdara Sok and Pel Vennak to wrap up his spell, picking a five-wicket haul in a single over in T20I cricket.

Cambodia was left battered with Gede Priandana's spell and was bowled out at 107, 60 runs short of the target.

Gede Priandana is the third overall person to claim a five-wicket haul in a single over. Only Bangladesh's Al-Amin Hossain and India's Abhimanyu Mithun have achieved this feat in the past, in domestic cricket.

Al-Amin was the first ever person to do so at the 2013-14 Victory Day T20 Cup. Abhimanyu became the second after doing the same in the 2019-20 edition of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy during a semi-final match-up.
