New Delhi: Veteran Aussie fast bowler Andrew Tye on Thursday became only the second person to take a hat-trick in the history of Big Bash League (BBL).

The Perth Scorchers bowler dismissed Jack Wildermuth (17.6), Mitchell Swepson (19.1) and Mark Steketee (19.2) and off the successive deliveries across two overs to replicate Xavier Doherty's 2012 feat.

The 30-year-old right-arm medium-fast bowler ended with figures of 3.2-0-22-4 as Scorchers won the match by 27 runs at Woolloongabba, Brisbane.
