The 36-year-old Australian pacer, Scott Boland, has entered the elite list of bowlers by taking an hattrick in the third Test between Australia and the West Indies at Sabina Park, Kingston, in Jamaica. With this, Boland became the first ever bowler to take a hat-trick in a pink-ball Test match. Not only that, he became the 10th bowler from Australia to have a hat-trick in Test cricket. He entered the elite list having Frederick Spofforth, Hugh Trumble, Jimmy Matthews, Lindsay Kline, Merv Hughes, Damien Fleming, Shane Warne, Glenn McGrath and Peter Siddle. Spofforth took the first hattrick long-time back in 1878-79 against England. Siddle was the last one to take a hattrick in 2010 in at the Gabba in Brisbane in 2010 against England. He had dismissed Alastair Cook, Matt Prior and Stuart Broad. Coming back to Boland, he took West Indies from 26 for 6 to 26 for 9. He initiated the hat-trick by pinning Greaves leg-before with a ball that jagged back in sharply. Then, showcasing his signature seam movement, he removed Alzarri Joseph, before completing the hat-trick with a beauty that shattered Warrican’s stumps. Boland wrapped up with exceptional figures of 3 for 2, playing a key role in Australia’s 176-run win and their 3-0 series whitewash.

West Indies, in response, were bundled out for just 143, with all five Australian pacers contributing at least one wicket. The Caribbean bowlers then mounted a fierce comeback, dismissing Australia for only 121 in the second innings. Chasing 204 for victory, the hosts seemed to have a fighting chance—until Mitchell Starc unleashed arguably the finest spell of his career. The left-arm pacer tore through the batting lineup, reducing West Indies to a mere 27 runs—marking the second-lowest total in Test history. The lowest remains New Zealand’s infamous 26 against England in 1955.
