Batting R B 4s 6s SR
David Warnerb Jayden Seales 5 16 1 0 31.25
3.5
Jayden Seales to David Warner, OUT! DRAGGED ON! Jayden Seales comes back strongly after conceding the boundary and gets the early breakthrough. This is very full and angling across the left-hander. David Warner crouches a bit and looks for the expansive cover drive but his feet don't move and Warner ends up playing away from the body. The ball just holds its line a touch and take the inside edge before crashing into the stumps. Warner's poor run of form in Test matches continues and Seales is ecstatic.
Usman Khawajac Joshua Da Silva b Kyle Mayers 65 149 5 1 43.62
52.1
Kyle Mayers to Usman Khawaja, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Kyle Mayers gets back into the attack and strikes straightaway! A big wicket here of Usman Khawaja and the partnership is finally broken. This man Mayers has the knack of picking up big wickets and he has done it yet again here. Serves a beautiful good-length delivery, around off. Mayers gets good shape away from the batter and the ball catches the outside edge of Usman Khawaja's blade as he tries to defend it. Joshua Da Silva takes an easy regulation catch and that is exactly what Windies needed to lift their spirits up.
Marnus Labuschagnec Joshua Da Silva b Kraigg Brathwaite 204 350 20 1 58.29
118.1
Kraigg Brathwaite to Marnus Labuschagne, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Oh, what an anti-climax! Marnus Labuschagne departs just at the stroke of Lunch and that ends a marathon knock from a fantastic cricketer. Kraigg Brathwaite brings himself on and fires a flatter and touch shorter delivery, around off from 'round the wicket. Marnus Labuschagne goes back and tries to steer it square off the wicket on the off side. However, the ball bounces a touch more and takes an outside edge of his blade and Joshua Da Silva behind the stumps takes a sharp catch. Marnus Labuschagne is disappointed and it will be Lunch on Day 2! Marnus Labuschagne gets a standing ovation and Australia are 402 for 3 at Lunch on Day 2!

Kraigg Brathwaite to Travis Head, OUT! CHOPPED ON! Oh, tragedy here for Travis Head! He is gone on 99 and Australia have declared. A shortish delivery by Kraigg Brathwaite that is pushed quicker as well and around off. Head tries to late-cut it but gets an inside edge that goes onto knock over the stumps. He would be disappointed but it has been a superb knock from the South Australian. Australia declare at 598/4!

Batting R B 4s 6s SR
Kraigg Brathwaite (C)b Pat Cummins 64 166 5 1 38.55
54.2
Pat Cummins to Kraigg Brathwaite, OUT! TIMBER! Skipper to skipper and at last, Pat Cummins does have his 200th Test wicket and he has certainly deserved it. This is a dream delivery from Cummins as he serves it on a length and angles it into middle and off. Kraigg Brathwaite looks to block and plays down the correct line but the ball just straightens a touch off the deck and beats the outside edge going on to hit the top of off stump. Brathwaite departs after a solid knock but Australia now have a chance to go hard at the Windies middle order.
Tagenarine Chanderpaulc David Warner b Josh Hazlewood 51 79 7 1 64.56
25.6
Josh Hazlewood to Tagenarine Chanderpaul, OUT! CAUGHT! Gone this time and Josh Hazlewood strikes early on Day 3! End of a very good knock on debut by Tagenarine Chanderpaul. Josh Hazlewood lands a perfect delivery again, in that channel around off. Tagenarine Chanderpaul again tries to defend this good-length delivery which is angled across him. However, this time the ball catches the outside edge of his blade and  goes straight to first slip where David Warner takes an easy catch. Now then, a wicket early in the day and let's see how the Windies respond now.

Jermaine Blackwoodlbw b Mitchell Starc 36 108 4 0 33.33
82.4
Mitchell Starc to Jermaine Blackwood, OUT! LBW! Starc strikes with the new ball and Jermaine Blackwood gritty knock comes to an end. This is why Starc is so dangerous, if he gets it right, there are few bowlers in the world that can match him. He bowls a fullish delivery that shapes in nicely into Blackwood again. He tries to flick it but is late on his shot and gets hit on the pads. Starc makes a loud appeal and the umpire gives it out straightaway. Blackwood though takes the DRS. The replays roll in and according to Hotspot and Snicko there is no bat there. The Ball Tracking rolls and it shows umpire's call on wicket's hitting. So, the original decision stays and Jermaine Blackwood has to walk off.
Kyle Mayersb Mitchell Starc 1 8 0 0 12.5
57.1
Mitchell Starc to Kyle Mayers, OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! Kyle Mayers' stay at the crease is a short one. Mitchell Starc steams in from over the wicket and angles in a full ball into the off pole. This is bowled at over 144 clicks and catches Mayers out. Once again Mayers' feet don't go anywhere and he is late in his attempted drive as well. The ball takes a faint inside edge and goes on to castle into the stumps. These are dangerous times for the Windies batters as they look to fend off the Aussie quicks.
Jason Holderc David Warner b Nathan Lyon 27 54 2 1 50
70.6
Nathan Lyon to Jason Holder, OUT! TAKEN! The change of line has worked immediately for Nathan Lyon. Lyon switches to around the wicket and just floats it up on the pads with the ball turning in. Jason Holder looks to lean forward and clip it through the leg side but ends up closing the face of the bat early and flicking it behind. David Warner at leg slip is quick to react and gets down low to his left to take a sharp catch. Holder was looking dangerous but Lyon gets the better of him on this occasion.
Shamarh Brooksc Alex Carey b Cameron Green 33 58 4 0 56.9
90.1
Cameron Green to Shamarh Brooks, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Cameron Green comes back into the attack and picks up his first wicket of the game right away. Green serves this one full and outside off, Shamarh Brooks' eyes lit up as he looks to pounce on it and drive it through covers. The ball just nips away a touch and there's not much feet movement by Brooks. The outside edge is found and Alex Carey takes a simple catch behind the stumps. Australia will now look to clean up the West Indian tail.
Joshua Da Silva (W)b Mitchell Starc 0 3 0 0 0
84.1
Mitchell Starc to Joshua Da Silva, OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! Right through the gate. It's a Mitchell Starc special! Fast and fuller swinging into middle at 145 kph. Joshua Da Silva tries to flick it but ends up playing all around that delivery as the ball sneaks between his bat and pad. Quite a poor shot this from Joshua Da Silva, he is a better batter than this but he is gone now. Aussies are right on top now.
Roston Chaselbw b Pat Cummins 13 42 1 0 30.95
96.6
Pat Cummins to Roston Chase, OUT! LBW! The skipper with yet another masterful stroke and West Indies lose their eight wicket. Pat Cummins serves this one a touch fuller on off stump and angles it in. The ball nips back in sharply off the deck and keeps a shade low as well. Roston Chase gets completely caught on the crease and ends up getting pinged right in front. There is a huge appeal and the finger is raised almost instanteanously. No review from Chase and rightly so as ball Tracking shows it was crashing into middle stump. West Indies still need 117 runs to avoid the follow on.
Alzarri Josephc David Warner b Pat Cummins 4 27 0 0 14.81
98.2
Pat Cummins to Alzarri Joseph, OUT! CAUGHT! That's it, West Indies have been bowled out here! Pat Cummins bangs this one in short over middle and at a good height as well. Alzarri Joseph looks to take it on but mistimes it badly. The ball pops up around the mid-wicket region and David Warner over there takes a simple catch and sprints back to the dressing room which is an indication that Australia will bat again. West Indies are bundled out for 283 and Australia have a mammoth first-innings lead of 315 runs.
Kemar Roachc Steven Smith b Nathan Lyon 0 3 0 0 0
97.4
Nathan Lyon to Kemar Roach, OUT! CAUGHT! A brilliant reflex catch at first slip by Steven Smith and Kemar Roach has to walk back for a duck. Lovely flight on this one from Nathan Lyon and he pushes this outside the off stump as well. Roach goes for the expansive drive against the turn and ends up getting a thick outside edge. Smith has almost no time react but does well to push back and grab it with both hands to his left. Australia are now just one wicket away from bundling out West Indies.

4.1
Kemar Roach to Usman Khawaja, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! An early breakthrough for the Windies and Usman Khawaja departs early. This is a short and widish delivery that seams away a bit. Usman Khawaja is in two minds here whether to play at it or no and gets too late in taking his bat away from the line of the ball. The ball catches the outside edge of his blade and Joshua Da Silva behind the stumps nearly makes a mess of a regulation catch but holds onto it in the end.
David Warnerc Shamarh Brooks b Roston Chase 48 71 5 0 67.61
24.6
Roston Chase to David Warner, OUT! CAUGHT! Roston Chase strikes and Warner departs! He is very disappointed and rightly so, he was setting up for a big score here. Chase bowls it slower through the air and on middle from 'round the wicket.  Warner takes a big stride forward and defends it with hard hands. However, the ball goes off the inside half of his blade and loops up in the air right of short leg where Brooks takes a sharp catch. So, West Indies finally have a breakthrough.

Nathan Lyon to Kraigg Brathwaite, OUT! BOWLED! That's a killer blow from Nathan Lyon! This might well open the floodgates for Australia! Big, big wicket and Kraigg Brathwaite's stellar knock comes to an end. Lyon has beautifully changed his pace this morning. Bowls it touch short this time and around off. It is at good pace at 98 kph and turns in sharply. Kraigg Brathwaite is neither forwrad nor back and ends up getting an inside edge as he tries to push it towards the off side. The ball knocks over the stumps and West Indies now need something special to save this match.
Tagenarine Chanderpaulb Mitchell Starc 45 126 4 0 35.71
36.3
Mitchell Starc to Tagenarine Chanderpaul, OUT! CHOPPED ON! The change of angle has worked for Mitchell Starc! This is short of a length and around off, cramping the batter up. Tagenarine Chanderpaul gets pegged on the back foot and looks to cut from close to the body. In the end, there's not much room and Chanderpaul gets an inside edge as the ball goes on to disturb the stumps. The third umpire checks it just to confirm if Starc's back leg wasn't outside the tramline when he delivered the ball and everything seems fine. Australia finally have the breakthrough and it will be interesting now as to how the Windies react.
Shamarh Brooksc Steven Smith b Nathan Lyon 11 20 2 0 55
41.4
Nathan Lyon to Shamarh Brooks, OUT! CAUGHT! Great catch by Smith and Australia have got their second wicket! This is classy bowling from Lyon. He tosses this one and pitches it just short of full length. The key here is that he bowls it wider outside off. Brooks pushes forward to defend it and gets an outside edge. The ball goes towards right of first slip and Smith dives to his right to pull off a superb catch. 
Jermaine Blackwoodc Marnus Labuschagne b Nathan Lyon 24 62 3 0 38.71

Nathan Lyon to Jermaine Blackwood, OUT! CAUGHT! Sharp reflexes from Marnus Labuschagne and Jermaine Blackwood's resistance comes to an end. Nathan Lyon tosses it up on a nagging length and on off stump. The ball grips and turns as Blackwood gets pushed onto the back foot. Blackwood looks to block but gets an inside edge off the pads and to the right of short leg. Labuschagne just sticks out a right hand and grabs it out of thin air. Australia are ecstatic.
Kyle Mayersc Steven Smith b Nathan Lyon 10 22 2 0 45.45
67.1
Nathan Lyon to Kyle Mayers, OUT! CAUGHT! Nathan Lyon strikes and Australia have an early wicket! He should have got Mayers off his first delivery of the day but Aussies didn't opt for a review at that time but luckily for them, it has not cost much. Lovely loopy delivery that pitches just short of full length angling from 'round the wicket. Mayers pushes forward to defend it. However, the ball turns and catches the outside edge of his blade. The ball goes right of Smith at first slip and he takes a fine catch here. West Indies need to tighten up!
Jason Holderc Steven Smith b Travis Head 3 35 0 0 8.57
78.2
Travis Head to Jason Holder, OUT! TAKEN! Oh, what a ripper of a catch from Steven Smith! Travis Head gives it a nice loop and bowls it full and wide. Jason Holder reaches out and throws his hands at it, looking to go over covers. Holder is unable to reach the pitch of the ball and gets an outside edge. Alex Carey moves to his right but the ball beats him. Smith though who is almost unsighted at first slip, just puts a reflex dive down to his left and grabs it with both hands. West Indies are going down in a hurry here.
Joshua Da Silva (W)c Usman Khawaja b Josh Hazlewood 12 38 1 0 31.58
84.2
Josh Hazlewood to Joshua Da Silva, OUT! CAUGHT! Josh Hazlewood strikes and Joshua Da Silva after playing some good shots has to make his way back to the pavilion. Australia now are just three wickets away from sealing this game. Just short of good length and around off. Joshua Da Silva tries to punch it away from his body as the ball nips away a bit. It catches the outside edge and goes straight into the hands of Usman Khawaja at third slip. Much-deserved wicket for Josh Hazlewood and he looks a relieved man.
Roston Chasec Mitchell Starc b Nathan Lyon 55 85 3 1 64.71
110.4
Nathan Lyon to Roston Chase, OUT! TAKEN! Nathan Lyon has the last laugh here and picks up a brilliant five-wicket haul. Lyon gioves it a bit more air and shortens the length ever so slightly on middle and leg. Roston Chase looks to just heave it aerially and in front of mid-wicket but gets undone in flight and ends up playing it off the inner half of the bat and much squarer. Mitchell Starc from deep mid-wicket rushes in and dives forward to take a good low catch. End of a fighting knock from Chase and Australia are onje wicket away from victory.
Alzarri Josephb Travis Head 43 72 4 3 59.72
103.6
Travis Head to Alzarri Joseph, OUT! BOWLED! This time he is gone and finally, Australia manage to break this partnership! What an inspired bowling change by Cummins. This is bowled quicker and flatter on off. Joseph tries to defend it and plays for a turn. However, it is again the natural variation of the off-spinner that does the trick as the ball goes straight and beats the outside edge of Joseph's blade. The ball goes onto knock over the stumps and can Australia wrap this match quickly now?

Nathan Lyon to Kemar Roach, OUT! TIMBER! That's it, Australia have done it! Lovely bit of bowling once again from Nathan Lyon and he ends the innings with 6 wickets in his bag. This is flighted up on a nagging length and around off. Kemar Roach looks to play for the turn and puts out a dead bat at it but the ball goes straight on with the arm and knocks over the top of off stump. Roach departs for a golden duck and Australia win by 164 runs.
