Kuldeep Yadav on Saturday joined a unique club when he completed his maiden five-wicket haul in Test cricket.
Kuldeep picked up five wickets against West Indies as he went through the visitors' middle order during their second innings in the ongoing first Test in Rajkot.
Kuldeep picked the wickets of Shai Hope (17), Shimron Hetmyer (11), Sunil Ambris (0), Roston Chase (20) and Kieran Powell (83) as West Indies were reduced to 151/6 from 79/1.
Kuldeep became only the second Indian bowler after Bhuvneshwar Kumar to take five-wicket hauls in all three formats of the game.
Kuldeep had recently picked five-wicket hauls in ODI and T20I during the England tour.
While Kuldeep had finished with figures of 5/24 in the first T20I against the hosts in Manchester, he had taken six wickets for just 25 runs in the first ODI at Trent Bridge against England.
West Indies were forced to follow-on after being bundled out for 181 in reply to India's 649.
He is the second Indian and the seventh bowler overall to pick five-wicket hauls across formats. Kuldeep joined Tim Southee, Ajantha Mendis, Umar Gul, Lasith Malinga, Imran Tahir, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar as bowlers with five-fers in each of the three formats.
