Hat-trick in T20 cricket is a rare phenomenon. Yet the Women's Premier League, since its inception two years back, has seen bowlers turn matches on their heads with game changing hat-tricks.

So far, the WPL has seen a total of three hat-tricks.

Here, we take a look at all the hat-tricks in the Women's Premier League:

Issy Wong

Issy Wong was the first player ever to take a hat-trick in WPL. She achieved this feat for Mumbai Indians against the UP Warriorz in the inaugural season's eliminator match.

Wong first removed an in-form and dangerous Kiran Navgire before capturing Sophie Ecclestone and Simran Shaikh in the contest.

Her stunning performance made sure the Mumbai Indians easily advanced to the final and were crowned the first-ever WPL champions.

Deepti Sharma

In a league stage match against Delhi Capitals held in 2024, Deepti Sharma became the first-ever Indian to take a WPL hat-trick, shifting the momentum in UP Warriorz' favor.

She dismissed Meg Lanning, one of the top hitters in women's cricket, Annabel Sutherland and Arundhati Reddy with three consecutive deliveries.

Sharma's hat-trick was essential in derailing Delhi Capitals' innings and helping UP Warriorz to win a key game.

Grace Harris

Grace Harris carried on UP Warriorz's heritage of generating hat-trick heroes in a league stage game against Delhi Capitals in 2025.

Arundhati Reddy, who was involved in Sharma's hat-trick was also a victim in Harris' feat.

Asked to bowl the final over of the match against the Capitals, Harris first had Niki Prasad caught at deep midwicket. She then sent back Reddy before scalping Minnu Mani to bowl out the Capitals.

Harris' hat-trick handed the UP Warriorz their first win of the 2025 season.
