Nathan Ellis Facts

1. Nathan made his T20I (and international) debut on August 6, 2021, in the 3rd match of a 5-match away bilateral series against Bangladesh. On the last 3 balls of Bangladesh’s innings, Nathan recorded a hat-trick (the feat of dismissing 3 batters off 3 successive legal deliveries).
2. This made him the first cricketer ever to take a hat-trick on his T20I debut. Hat-tricks are rare occurrences in any format of cricket and even more so in the T20I format. Nathan’s hat-trick was just the 17th such occasion (and only the 5th in a losing cause) in the 1,216 T20I matches that had been played until then (including that match).
3. He also became just the 3rd Australian cricketer to have achieved a hat-trick in the T20I format. Brett Lee (September 2007) and Ashton Agar (February 2020) had previously achieved this feat. However, both those hat-tricks had been in a winning cause. Brett’s hat-trick, also against Bangladesh, was the first ever hat-trick recorded in a T20I match.
4. As mentioned earlier, Australia lost the match in which Nathan took his hat-trick which meant that Australia conceded the 5-match series to Bangladesh by a 3-0 margin. This was Bangladesh’s first-ever series win in any format against Australia. This tour of Bangladesh was Australia’s first in the country since 2017 and the 5-match series was the first bilateral T20I series between the two teams. Interestingly, the series was not shown live in Australia due to a lack of a deal with broadcasters. This was the first time since Australia’s tour of Pakistan in 1994 that an overseas tour was not shown on Australian television.
5. Later in August 2021, Nathan was named as one of the 3 players who would serve as injury cover for Australia’s squad that would participate in the 2021 edition of the ICC (International Cricket Council) World T20.
6. He is mighty afraid of snakes.
