Getting fully involved in the game is the true reflector of how much the players are enjoying that game. Sometimes he/she gets so much into the game that he forgets that he is completed his half-century(referring to MS Dhoni) and many more other incidents. Something like this happened in the one of the recent match of BBL. The match was played between Brisbane Heat and Perth Scorchers. Josh Lalor forget that he has scored a hat-trick against PS. This was the fourth hat-trick in the history of BBL, but will also go down as the most bizarre hat-tricks in cricketing history.
No one on the field knew that he has picked up a hat-trick. No one noticed that he has completed his hattrick by dismissing Nick Hobson on the second delivery of the 20th over, not even Lalor himself, got an idea about the feat, no celebrations also.
When the commentators inquired Wicket-keeper James Pierson about this, he sounded surprised. Even skipper Chris Lynn didn’t knew about the incident and was shocked to see Alex Ross celebrating.
Commentators Conveys..
Did you have any idea that it was a hat-trick?” asked the commentators to Pierson, to which he replied, “Was it a hat-trick? (laughs)” “We are not kidding!” commentators reverted back. “Hat-trick! We thought this was the hat-trick ball. We missed it!” said Pierson in surprise. “You are part of the history and you didn’t even know!” the commentators laughed.
“Josh Lalor took the fourth hat-trick in Big Bash history… and not a single player on the field knew about it! A @KFCAustralia ‘Bucket Moment’ if we’ve ever seen one #BBL08,” wrote BBL in their official Twitter handle.

However this muted and low volume celebrations will be counted as the most bizzare actions happened in cricket.
Brisbane Heat won the match by six wickets as they chased down the 129-run target set by Perth Scorchers.
