Peter Siddle’s hat-trick on birthday in Ashes 2010-11

A video of Australia cricketers recounting the famous hat-trick bagged by Peter Siddle on his 26th birthday in Ashes 2010-11 at Brisbane in the first Test.

Playing in his 18th Test Siddle removed, Alastair Cook, Matt Prior and Stuart Broad. Siddle recalls in the video how his inclusion was debated with Ryan Harris and Doug Bollinger in contention. Siddle was the 11th Australian and fifth bowler to take hat-trick in Ashes.

Siddle bagged 6 for 54 in the match. He could have had seven if Brad Haddin hadn't floored a catch offered by James Anderson.

Siddle earned rewards for keeping his line full and around the stumps to trouble the England batsmen.

Siddle remembers how nervous he was before running up to ball to Broad — his hat-trick wicket.
