Cricket World Cup: South Africa vs Sri Lanka

Just in case you thought I wasn’t paying attention to any but the West Indies matches (or matches occurring in Trinidad & Tobago)…two days ago South Africa beat Sri Lanka (same day we batted against Australia and lost).

And Malinga got 4 wickets in 4 consecutive deliveries!!!
I know 3 wickets in 3 deliveries is called a hat trick but what’s 4?
I think they said it was a first in International cricket!!

But Sri Lanka still lost! :(
