Thipatcha Putthawong (Thai:ทิภัชชา พุทธวงค์, born 7 March 2004) is a Thai cricketer.[2] In January 2020, at the age of 15, she was selected in Thailand's squad for the 2020 ICC Women's T20 World Cup.[3][4][5] Along with Suwanan Khiaoto, she was one of two cricketers selected for Thailand's squad at the Women's T20 World Cup who were not in the squad for the qualification tournament in Scotland.[6][7] Prior to being named in Thailand's squad for the Women's T20 World Cup, she made her Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) debut for Thailand, against Myanmar, on 12 January 2019 in the Thailand Women's T20 Smash.[8]

In November 2021, she was named in Thailand's team for the 2021 Women's Cricket World Cup Qualifier tournament in Zimbabwe.[9] She played in Thailand's first match of the tournament, on 21 November 2021 against Zimbabwe.[10]

In October 2022, she played for Thailand in Women's Twenty20 Asia Cup.[citation needed]

Career Achievements

[edit]

In April 2023, She achieved the sixth best bowling figure in women's ODI cricket history, with a bowling figure of 6/6 against Zimbabwe women's national cricket team.[11][12]

In May 2023 Thipatcha won ICC's Player of the month in the women's category.[13][14][15]

In a July 2023 tri-series against the Netherlands, she found a place in the record books again by taking four wickets in four consecutive deliveries, achieving a double hat trick to become just the 7th cricketer in history, and the 3rd woman cricketer, to achieve this feat. All four of the batters were bowled, which is rare in hat tricks, especially in double hat tricks.[12][16][17]

On May 1st, 2024, she took her second 4-wicket haul in T20 internationals, against the United States, with all four being taken bowled. She allowed just 12 runs in four overs, with one maiden and nineteen dot balls, and was awarded player of the match.[18]
