OUT! Caught. Shamar Joseph to Josh Hazlewood. Back of a length, outside off stump backing away cutting, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep backward point, caught by Joseph. Australia has been dismissed for 225 runs. Despite a solid start, the Australian batters couldn't convert it into significant scoreboard pressure. Steve Smith was the standout with a well-made 48 but an impressive bowling display from the West Indies pacers ensured the visitors were limited to a manageable score. Shamar Joseph was the standout performer, taking four wickets, while Jayden Seales and Justin Greaves each contributed with three wickets. Will the Australian bowlers be able to bounce back, or will the West Indies be able to see out the evening with minimal loss? Let's find out.
