Campher records most consecutive wickets in professional cricket; full list
The other four names in the list are Sri Lanka's Lasith Malinga, who achieved this feat against New Zealand in T20Is back in 2019, and Rashid Khan, who took 4 wickets for Afghanistan against Ireland in 2019, also in T20 Internationals. Andre Adams of New Zealand took 4 consecutive wickets for Auckland while playing in New Zealand's domestic ODI tournament, while Keith Hatchett of Australia achieved this feat playing for Tasmania in first-class cricket.
Although Campher is the first male cricketer to take five consecutive wickets in professional cricket, he is not the first overall, as Zimbabwe women's all-rounder Kelis Ndhlovu also took five wickets in five balls for Zimbabwe U-19 against Eagles Women in the domestic T20 tournament back in 2024.
Most wickets on consecutive balls in men's professional cricket:
No. of Consecutive Wickets Player Format Match / Team Year
5 Curtis Campher T20 (Inter-Provincial) Munster Reds vs North-West Warriors 2024
4 Lasith Malinga T20I Sri Lanka vs New Zealand 2019
4 Rashid Khan T20I Afghanistan vs Ireland 2019
4 Curtis Campher T20I Ireland vs Netherlands 2021
4 Andre Adams List A Auckland vs Northern Districts (NZ Domestic) 2007
How Campher achieved the unique feat
Munster Reds captain Curtis Campher produced a stunning spell, taking five wickets in just 11 balls to bowl out the Warriors for 88 in their chase of 189. His onslaught began in the 12th over, bowling Jared Wilson with a sharp inswinger. He trapped Graham Hume lbw next ball, setting up a hat-trick that he completed when Andy McBrine miscued a slog to deep midwicket on the first ball of the 14th over. Campher then dismissed Robbie Millar caught behind and bowled Josh Wilson to finish with sensational figures, as the Warriors collapsed from 87 for 5 to 88 all out.

'Don't Spoil Like Prithvi Shaw': Vaibhav Suryavanshi Given Massive Warning
Young Indian batter Vaibhav Suryavanshi is rising through the ranks with his dominating show in the world of cricket. At the age of 13-years, the left-handed batter hogged lime light for being picked for a mammoth sum of Rs 1.1 crore at IPL 2025 auction that was held in November last year. He got his opportunity in the T20 extravaganza this year and stunned all with his batting ability. Suryavanshi, who by then became 14 years old, scored 252 runs in 7 mathces, while also becoming the fastest Indian to score a century in IPL history. He achieved the feat in just 35 balls. As IPL concluded, Suryavanshi continued to spread his charm in under-19 cricket. He shone with scores of 48, 45, 86, 143 and 33 in the Youth ODI series against England before smashing 14 and 56 in the 1st Youth Test against the side. At such a young age, Suryavanshi has already got a superb fan following. Commenting on the popularity that the player is getting, many users on social media said that he should not suffer the same fate as Prithvi Shaw's. Shaw also emerged as one of the rising batting sensations in India, but lost his fame with time after failing to live up to the expectations. He should continue this, not spoil like Prithvi — Chittaranjan Kumar (@chitta2019) July 16, 2025 This to much fan following and paparazzi at this young age can lead to bad performance in future. We have already seen an example of Prithwi shaw. — (@Real_Talks_Ind) July 15, 2025 Time se pehle prithvi na bann jaaye bs — Vishal Mishra (@vforvishall) July 15, 2025 Recently, two girls by the name of Aanya and Rivaa travelled for 6 hours just to get a picture with Suryavanshi. Both girls wore the Rajasthan Royals shirt as they met the 14-year-old India star. Even the official X (Twitter) highlighted the incredible fan story on social media. "Proof why we have the best fans. Drove for 6 hours to Worcester. Wore their Pink. Cheered for Vaibhav & Team India. Aanya and Rivaa, as old as Vaibhav himself, had a day to remember," Rajasthan Royals' handle wrote.

India Women vs England Women 2025 1st ODI match LIVE Streaming Details: Timings, Telecast Date, when and where to watch
Team India captain Harmanpreet Kaur at a training session at Southampton. (Source: X) Harmanpreet Kaur's Team are riding on a high after their first-ever T20I series win over England recently. The India women cricket team beat England 3-2 on their own turf. Now, the Indian side have set their sights on carrying their fine form into the ODI format as they build towards the ICC Women's ODI World Cup 2025 later this year in India and Sri Lanka. India will take on England in a three-match ODI series beginning at the Rose Bowl in Southampton on Wednesday. Team India had won their last ODI assignment – the Tri-series against Sri Lanka and South Africa – in May this year. Indians have tweaked their approach in recent years, placing greater emphasis on posting totals in excess of 300. 'In the ODI cricket we've been playing for the last couple of years, we've always focused on scoring more than 300 with the bat,' skipper Harmanpreet said. 'It gives the bowlers some cushioning. Earlier we had five bowling options, and it becomes slightly tough if we have only so many runs on the board. Recently, like in the T20Is, we went for four spin options. I think somewhere that has helped,' she added. Young opener Pratika Rawal has been preferred over Shafali Verma once again after scoring impressively in the tri-series tournament. Pratika etched her name in the record books by becoming the fastest batter to reach 500 runs in women's ODIs. England, on the other hand, will be bolstered by the return of two key players – skipper Nat Sciver-Brunt, who missed the last three T20Is due to a groin strain. She is back to lead the side for the ODI series. World No. 1 ODI bowler Sophie Ecclestone also returns after a lengthy layoff due to a knee injury which forced her out of the West Indies series in May.

IND-W vs ENG-W 1st ODI Live: How to Watch India Women vs England Women, Streaming Details, Match Time & Squads
Fresh from a landmark T20I series win, Harmanpreet Kaur's Team India returns to the 50-over format as they lock horns with England in the first ODI of a three-match series on Wednesday, July 16, at The Ageas Bowl, Southampton. With the Women's ODI World Cup just two months away on Indian soil, this series carries immense weight for both teams, especially for the visitors who are using it as a final opportunity to fine-tune their playing XI and game strategies. This match isn't just another bilateral fixture — it's a litmus test of India's ODI readiness and depth in overseas conditions. Cricket fans across India can tune in for live coverage of the India Women vs England Women 1st ODI starting at 5:30 PM IST. The toss is scheduled for 5:00 PM IST. TV Telecast: Sony Sports Network Live Streaming: SonyLIV app and website, also available on the FanCode platform Searches like 'IND-W vs ENG-W live streaming today', 'India women's ODI live SonyLIV', and 'England vs India women match time' are already trending — so fans better bookmark their platforms to avoid missing out. Key Talking Points: India's Momentum and World Cup Focus India's thrilling 3-2 T20I series triumph marked their first-ever series win over England in the shortest format, creating a surge of confidence ahead of the ODIs. But the longer format presents a different challenge — one that requires composure, deeper bench strength, and tactical precision. Harmanpreet Kaur will look to lead from the front while closely monitoring form and fitness across the squad. With only three more ODIs scheduled before the World Cup — a home series against Australia in September — the time for experimentation is narrowing. Return of Pratika Rawal: A Game-Changing Boost at the Top One of the biggest developments ahead of the 1st ODI is the return of Pratika Rawal, the in-form Delhi opener who missed the T20Is. Rawal's formidable partnership with Smriti Mandhana has been a cornerstone of India's recent ODI success. The duo has amassed 968 runs in 11 innings, averaging an astonishing 88, with four 100-run stands to their name. Their ability to blunt the new ball and accelerate in the middle overs makes them India's most dependable opening pair in the 50-over format. Players to Watch in the 1st ODI Smriti Mandhana – Consistent performer in both white-ball formats, expected to anchor the top order Deepti Sharma – All-round asset, vital with both ball and bat in pressure situations Harmanpreet Kaur – The captain's form will be crucial in setting or chasing competitive totals Nat Sciver-Brunt (ENG) – England's new skipper brings vast experience and balance to the XI Sophie Ecclestone (ENG) – The No.1 ODI bowler globally will test India's middle-order resilience Confirmed Squads India Women Squad: Pratika Rawal, Smriti Mandhana, Harleen Deol, Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Jemimah Rodrigues, Richa Ghosh (wk), Deepti Sharma, Sneh Rana, Shree Charani, Kranti Goud, Amanjot Kaur, Sayali Satghare, Tejal Hasabnis, Arundhati Reddy, Yastika Bhatia, Radha Yadav England Women Squad: Nat Sciver-Brunt (c), Tammy Beaumont, Amy Jones (wk), Emma Lamb, Sophia Dunkley, Alice Capsey, Kate Cross, Linsey Smith, Lauren Bell, Lauren Filer, Charlotte Dean, Alice Davidson Richards, Maia Bouchier, Em Arlott, Sophie Ecclestone
