West Indies debutant Kevin Sinclair has been famous in the Caribbean for his Cartwheel celebration. Since he came into the limelight during the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2023, playing for St Kitts and Nevis Patriots, the world came to know about him. Talking about his cricket, Sinclair has played 21 First Class games and has 66 wickets before making his Test debut.
Meanwhile, in the ongoing second Test, the right-arm off-spinner has picked his maiden Test wicket in the form of Usman Khawaja. After the left-hander was caught at slips by Alick Athanaze, the Guyana Amazon Warriors player could be seen cartwheeling.

The World Test Championship defending champions have been given tough times for the first time in this series. Batting first, thanks to half-centuries from Kavem Hodge, Joshua Da Silva, and Sinclair helped the team reach 311 all-out. Mitchell Starc completed his 350 Test wickets with a four-wicket haul. On the other hand, Josh Hazlewood and Nathan Lyon took two wickets each.
In reply, the home team lost five wickets for 54. Alex Carey counter-attacked with a fifty while Khawaja scored a steady fifty. In the end, skipper Pat Cummins scored an unbeaten fifty before declaring the innings with a 22-run deficit. Before the stumps, the visitors were 13/1.
