Nuwan Kulasekara of Sri Lanka became the first player to take a wicket on a “0th ball” in men’s international cricket during a T20 match against the Netherlands in 2014. This rare event happened because he took a wicket on a “free hit” ball, which, according to cricket rules, doesn’t officially count as a delivery in the over, but still resulted in a dismissal, making this an unusual cricketing record.
