India pace bowler Jasprit Bumrah has completed a hat-trick against West Indies on the second day of the second test in Jamaica.
Bumrah had left-hander Darren Bravo caught at second slip for four, before trapping both Shamarh Brooks and Roston Chase lbw for golden ducks at Sabina Park in Kingston.
It was just the third test hat-trick by an India bowler - after Harbhajan Singh against Australia in Calcutta in 2001 and Irfan Pathan against Pakistan in Karachi in 2006.
Bumrah, playing his 12th test, had already dismissed opener John Campbell caught behind for two before embarking on his hat-trick in his next over.
Bravo fell to a beautiful outswinger that he had little choice but to play, the ball flying to KL Rahul who took a sharp catch.
Brooks was next to go after he was trapped in front of middle stump and compounded the error by wasting a review.
Chase, by contrast, was given not out after being hit on the pad. However, India captain Virat Kohli decided to review and replays showed the ball would havestruck leg stump and the decision was overturned.
As Bumrah was mobbed by his team mates, Chase trudged off with West Indies reeling at 4-13 in reply to India's first innings total of 416.
Bumrah was not finished as he soon had opener Kraigg Brathwaite caught-behind for 10, and the home team were on the ropes at 5-22.
Bumrah had picked up five wickets for 10 runs off six overs.
