Earlier, both Harbhajan Singh in a match against Australia (Kolkata 2001) and Irfan Pathan against Pakistan (Karachi 2006) had scored a hat-trick in Test cricket.

Burmah is also the 44th player to achieve the feat in the longest format of the game. England spinner Moeen Ali was the last bowler who had bagged a hat-trick against South Africa at The Oval in 2017.
