Punjab Kings (PBKS) batsman Nicholas Pooran has managed a dubious record with his fourth duck at this year's Indian Premier League (IPL). He now has a duck without facing a ball, a golden duck, a second-ball duck, and a third-ball duck.
The left-handed batsman got a third-ball duck on Friday night in the match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) to go with his three earlier ducks.

While there are four other batsmen who managed four ducks in a season in previous years during the IPL, Pooran's series of ducks are unusual.
He started the tournament with a one-ball duck against Rajasthan Royals followed by a second-ball duck against Chennai Super Kings.
He was then run out without facing a ball against SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH). On Friday, he was dismissed for zero on the third ball he faced. In between, he has had scores of nine and 19. He didn't get to bat in the match against Mumbai Indians.
