A five-dimensional Bianchi type-I space-time is considered in the presence of a perfect fluid source in Barber's (Gen. Relat. Gravit. 14, 117, 1982) second self-creation theory of gravitation. The model is presented using a relation between the metric potentials and an equation of state. Some physical and kinematical properties of the model are discussed.
