Jermaine Jay Charles Lawson (born January 13, 1982, Jamaica) is a West Indian cricketer who has played in 13 Tests and 13 ODIs.
Lawson is a fast bowler capable of bowling over 150 km/h. He played at a remarkable level early in his Test career. His accomplishments in his first few matches include the extraordinary figures of 6/3 against Bangladesh in his third Test, a hat-trick against Australia in 2003/04, claiming the wickets of Brett Lee, Stuart MacGill and Justin Langer, and a haul of 7/78 against Australia which was instrumental in the West Indian victory in the final Test of that series.
However, his action has been suspect: he was reported for an "illegal action" on May 11, 2003 by the International Cricket Council. After remedial work, he returned to Test cricket in mid-2004, but stress fractures and a further reporting of his action in July 2005 have stalled his career to date.
