Kraigg Brathwaite – 6/29 against Sri Lanka
It’s Brathwaite who holds a unique record of best Test bowling figure by an opening batsman. He achieved his career’s best Test bowling figures on the third day of the 2nd Test against Sri Lanka in Colombo last year. Interestingly Brathwaite had just one Test wicket and 3 first-class wickets to his name before this match, but he captured 6/29 with his part-time off-spin and Sri Lanka was bowled out on 206, setting West Indies 244 to win.
