Pakistani all-rounder Shadab Khan is on a roll in the Lanka Premier League (LPL) 2024 as he has bagged two four wicket hauls in as many consecutive matches for Colombo Strikers. This has come after his flop show in the T20 World Cup 2024 campaign.

In his maiden LPL 2024 season match, Shadab also became the second bowler, after Wanindu Hasaranga, in the league's history to pick a hat-trick on Tuesday.

In the next match, Shadab again bagged four wickets, though in a lost cause as Galle Marvels outperformed his team by seven runs, on Wednesday.

The Colombo Strikers player took 4 for 21 at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium.
