Question

In cricket, which of the following terms is used when a bowler dismisses three batsmen with consecutive deliveries?

The correct answer is

Hat-trick

In cricket, a hat-trick is the dismissal of three batsmen by a bowler with three consecutive legal deliveries, whether in the same over or spanning two overs/innings.

An 'overthrow' is extra runs scored from a wild return by a fielder, a 'century' is 100 runs by a batter, and a 'duck' is being dismissed for zero — none of these describes three consecutive dismissals by a bowler.

Hence, Hat-trick.
