Turbo-charged Caddick took 5-14 as the Windies were skittled for just 61 and England romped home by an innings and 39 runs for their first Test victory inside two days since 1912. And Caddick, who blitzed blitzed

"Everything about the way we set about winning this game reminded me of Lord's - and the crowd were superb here, too." After Darren Gough had ripped out the Windies' top four with a magical new-ball spell in front of his home Yorkshire crowd, Caddick went on the warpath on a hostile expedition; hence, colloquially, about to attack a person or measure.

He became the first England bowler to take four wickets in an over since Chris Old Christopher Middleton Old (born December 22, 1948, Middlesbrough, Yorkshire) is a former English cricketer who played in 46 Tests and 32 ODIs from 1972 to 1981.

Chris Old played first class cricket for 20 years between 1966 and 1985 and was a regular member of the England

As Caddick's 10th over unfolded, he left a trail of carnage in which: Ridley Jacobs Ridley Detamore Jacobs (26 November, 1967, Swetes Village, Antigua), is a left-handed batsman who was a regular fixture in the West Indian cricket team in the 1990s and 2000s. He made his Test match debut on his 31st birthday, playing in 65 Tests in six years.  was pinned lbw from the first ball to leave the Windies a sorry 52-6.

Nixon McLean Nixon Alexei McNamara McLean (born July 20, 1973 in the Windward Islands) is a West Indian cricketer. He is a right-arm fast bowler and a left-handed batsman.

 two balls later - 52-7.

Curtly Ambrose was clean bowled next ball - 52-8.

Reon King survived the hat-trick ball and a no-ball, only for Caddick to trump him from the last delivery. After that, England's progress to a 2-1 lead with the final Test at the Oval to come in 12 days was a formality and Caddick completed his purple patch of 5-5 in 15 balls by dismissing Courtney Walsh. The wonderful mayhem even blew skipper Nasser Hussain's mind and he admitted: "It's been an incredible two days. "I thought the pitch was poor, especially on the first day, but the reason we've bowled them out for 61 and we're having three days off is because of some high-quality swing bowling. The great thing about Darren Gough is that he gets good players out - key players like Brian Lara - and that's why he's such an asset with the new ball.

"And Caddick's over was exceptional. He swung it beautifully - late, on a good length and a perfect line.

"During the first innings I had been looking to switch him to the Football Stand end but the opportunity never arose because it would have been cruel to take off Craig White when he was bowling so well and taking five wickets.

"I have to be honest and admit that it has barely registered that we have won a Test inside two days. We seem to have packed an awful lot of cricket into those two days that it feels more like our normal Saturday night finish!"

Hussain also paid tribute to man-of-the-match Michael Vaughan, who made his highest Test score, 76, on his home ground, and Graeme Hick, who made a priceless 59 on his 10th England comeback. He added: "That partnership set the tone for us."

Vaughan said: "It was fantastic that all three of the Yorkshire lads in the side were able to make such important contributions.

"Goughie bowled superbly and I nipped in with a few runs - although I was a shade disappointed because I would like to reach three figures for England one day."
