Shane Warne's son, Jackson, has shown he is a chip off the old block, snaring a hat-trick in a schoolboy game - 21 years after the legspin great claimed a hat-trick against England.

The 14-year-old was playing for his school Brighton Grammar with his father in attendance when he took the hat-trick.

The teenager went on to snare four wickets in five balls, finishing the day with 5/4.

Jackson's deeds came 21 years after father, Shane, snared Australia's first Ashes hat-trick in 90 years, against England at the MCG in 1994.
