Keemo Paul created history as he took the second five-for of his T20I career during the fourth T20I against India on Wednesday (October 14) at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Hyderabad as West Indies levelled the series 2-2 with a 24-run victory. The pacer was the pick of the bowlers with a spell of 5/41, which included the wickets of Sanju Samson, Ishan Kishan, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Prince Yadav, and Axar Patel.

Keemo had previously also achieved the landmark in a T20I against Bangladesh in 2022 at the Sher-e-Bangla Stadium in Mirpur in 2022. Among pacers from Test-playing nations, he is only the sixth player to take multiple five-fors in the shortest format of the game.

Keemo has become the first player in history to take a five-for against India in India. The previous best figures belonged to New Zealand cricket legend Mitchell Santner, who achieved the feat in a 2016 T20 World Cup at Nagpur.
