Cricket-Roach records first hat-trick of 2011 World Cup


West Indies pace bowler Kemar Roach recorded the first hat-trick of the 2011 World Cup against the Netherlands in a Group B match on Monday.
He removed Pieter Seelaar, Bernard Loots and Berend Westdijk off the last three deliveries of the match to lead West Indies to a 215-run victory.
Team mate Sulieman Benn praised Roach, who finished with figures of six for 27 as the Dutch were skittled for 115.
"Brilliant man. His bowling tonight was exceptional, I'm really pleased for him," said Benn.
"I'm glad he got that hat-trick -- I'm really proud of him."
