He also notched up club record of 11 dismissals.

Parker's first over in the turf 3 game against Doveton was a double wicket maiden. He took a wicket on the last ball and took two for none to give him his first hat-trick and cast a spell over the Doves, who were shot out for 54 chasing the Hawks' 286.

The 15-year-old produced some more wizardry with three wickets in Doveton's second dig of 114 to finish with match figures of 7-9 off 9.2 overs.

He also two catches and effected two runouts to create a club record in individual dismissals for a game.

Parker said it was the most memorable eight balls he had bowled.

"It all happened so quickly, I couldn't believe it. It was magic. It's the best spell of bowling I've ever had, I can remember every one of those eight balls.

"We had attacking fields set, so I decided to to bowl on the spot and the pitch was doing a bit, which helped. I was rapt when I got it [the hat-trick].

"It was amazing and a bit overwhelming. It was a good day out considering I thought we weren't going to play because of rain during the week."

Hallam president Gary Davidson said he initially had trouble in believing anyone could take a hat-trick during a spell of just eight balls and had to take a second look at the scorebook.

"I can't recall anyone having figures like that before, or anyone taking a hat-trick in less that eight balls," he said.
