A hat-trick in cricket is when a bowler takes three wickets in consecutive deliveries, dismissing three different batsmen. It is a relatively rare event in Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) cricket with only 45 occurrences in over 2,100 matches. [1]
The first hat-trick in WT20Is was taken by Asmavia Iqbal of Pakistan, playing against England in Loughborough on 5 September 2012. [2]

A Super Over, also known as a one-over eliminator or a one over per side eliminator, is a tie-breaking method used in limited-overs cricket matches. If a match ends in a "tie", it proceeds to a Super Over, in which each team plays a single additional over of six balls to determine the match winner. The team scoring the most runs in that over is declared the winner. Following a rule change in October 2019 for knockout and bilateral series matches, if the first Super Over also ends in a tie, another Super Over is played.
