# List of women's international cricket hat-tricks

A hat-trick in cricket is when a bowler takes three wickets from consecutive deliveries. It is a relatively rare feat in women's international cricket. The first hat-trick was taken in a Test match between Australia and England in February 1958, by Australia's Betty Wilson. Two further hat-tricks have been taken in women's Tests; by Pakistan's Shaiza Khan in 2004, and Australia's Rene Farrell in 2011. The first hat-trick in women's One Day Internationals was taken by Carole Hodges during the 1993 Women's Cricket World Cup.
In September 2019, against the West Indies, Megan Schutt became the first female bowler to take two hat-tricks in international cricket.
The most recent bowler to achieve the feat was England's Charlie Dean, against South Africa during a Women's One Day International (WODI) in December 2024.
