List of India women's national football team hat-tricks

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

India women's national football team started playing in the late 1970s.[1][2] Their first major tournament was 1980 AFC Women's Championship.[3] In the next edition of the tournament in 1981, the first ever hat-trick (three or more goals in a match) for India was scored by Shanti Mullick. She scored 4 goals in a 5−0 victory over Singapore on 8 June 1981.[4] She was also the first player to score more than three goals in a match for India. In the 1981 edition two hat-tricks were scored, the second one was scored by Shukla Nag in an 8−0 win over Philippines.[4] As of 1 March 2019, 14 different players scored 25 hat-tricks for India.

2010 South Asian Games−football tournament was the first tournament where three different players scored hat-trick for India. Mandakini Devi scored against Sri Lanka, Bembem Devi scored against Pakistan and Naobi Chanu scored against Bangladesh, which helped India to reach the final of the tournament and eventually they won the gold medal.[5][6] The first player to have scored double hat-trick (six goals) in a single match for India was Sasmita Mallik. She scored 7 goals in an 18−0 victory over Bhutan at the 2010 SAFF Women's Championship, which is India's biggest win till date. Along with Mallik, Bala Devi and Tababi Devi also scored hat-trick in that match, thus became most number of hat-tricks scored in a single match by Indian players.[7][8]

However, a similar feat was achieved at the 2014 SAFF Women's Championship by the Indian team when Indumathi Kathiresan, Bala Devi and Irom Prameshwori Devi scored one hat-trick each in 12−0 victory over Afghanistan on 17 September 2014.[9] In the same edition, Bala Devi scored three hat-tricks; scored one each against the Maldives, Afghanistan and Nepal, the most by any Indian in a single tournament. These helps her to take her tally to 16 goals in 5 matches − the highest by any player in a single edition of the championship.[10] Bala Devi went on to score 7 hat-tricks in her international career, the most by an Indian. Kamala Devi achieved the feat thrice, where as, Shanti Mullick, Bembem Devi, Sasmita Mallik scored two hat-tricks for the national team. The most recent hat-trick was scored by Anju Tamang in a 9−0 victory over Maldives at the 2022 SAFF Women's Championship on 10 September 2022.[11]
