Curtis Campher became the only third bowler in T20I history to take four wickets in successive deliveries after Lasith Malinga and Rashid Khan. Campher achieved the feat during the Group A match of the 2021 T20 World Cup against the Netherlands.
The pacer removed Colin Ackermann (11), Ryan ten Doeschate (0), Scott Edwards (0) and Roelof van der Merwe (0) off successive deliveries.
Rashid was the first to achieve the feat in 2019 -- incidentally against Ireland -- where he ended with figures of 5/27. In the same year, Sri Lanka's Malinga recorded incredible figures of 5/6 in four overs against New Zealand as he took four in four deliveries.
Campher also recorded the first hat-trick of the 2021 T20 World Cup en route to the feat.
