- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.5 caught behind! Test match length and line does it. Good length, sixth stump line, hint of nip away, he tries to force on the up with a vertical bat through cover and gets a thin edge through to the keeper. No footwork as he poked at it 10/12.6 sliced to backward point! Inglis trying to drive on the up slices it straight to Chase. It wasn't full enough to drive, despite the width and it flew knee high to Chase who pouched it well. 21/215.5 miscued to mid-on! Back of a length, not that short, Green tries to pull over midwicket but was hurried a touch and miscues. It floats gently to mid-on. Easy catch. Green will be annoyed to throw away a start 89/47.1 chops on! Back of a length outside off, he defends with soft hands and it comes off the inside edge and drops onto off stump! It just seamed in a touch to catch the inside edge 50/316.4 Softie, driven straight to cover! Motie slows the pace, 78ks, and is rewarded. Above-the-eyeline full ball had Marnus step forward and drive a tad too early. The bat face opened as he hit it. Ends up scooping it off the pitch to Greaves. May have stuck in the pitch, Motie and West Indies will take that. 91/534.5 Spooned back to the bowler!. This one might've stuck in the pitch. Shortish ball at the stumps, Short cleared his front leg and tried driving it on top of the bounce with a vertical bat. But the bounce and lack of pace had him splice it back to the bowler. Easy catch for Motie, just reward for good bowling. 167/728.1 Top edges a pull from deep in the crease and Forde takes it at long-on. This was on a length just outside off, Hardie got square-on and signalled right after miscuing that he wanted to go over midwicket. The ball was skied and Forde ran in to take it. he ball spun away a bit, 96ks. 142/648.3 dragged on! Short slower ball much wider than the last, he tries to launch it again but drags it off the inside edge onto middle and off 251/945.4 Greaves plucks a stunner at cover! Low full toss, on speed, Sutherland carves a cover drive with power head high to Greaves' left at cover and he dives full stretch with the reverse cup and plucks it clean as a whistle. Superb catch. Like a goalkeeper to his left making the save to deny a top-corner penalty 224/8Extras9 (lb 1, nb 2, w 6)TOTAL258/9 (50 Overs, RR: 5.16)Fall of wickets: 1-10 (Jake Fraser-McGurk, 0.5 ov), 2-21 (Josh Inglis, 2.6 ov), 3-50 (Steven Smith, 7.1 ov), 4-89 (Cameron Green, 15.5 ov), 5-91 (Marnus Labuschagne, 16.4 ov), 6-142 (Aaron Hardie, 28.1 ov), 7-167 (Matthew Short, 34.5 ov), 8-224 (Will Sutherland, 45.4 ov), 9-251 (Sean Abbott, 48.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.3 Skied right up, Abbott runs back takes a tumbling catch! Scrambled seam on a fullish length, Athanaze tried driving through the line after two successive boundaries. Tried to launch it but the bat rattled upon impact and the ball went right up. Abbott backtracked and fell on his back after taking it fingers pointing up 19/14.4 Sutherland takes a high catch at mid-off. Length just outside off, 137ks, Greaves took a small stride forward and tried to lift it from the top of the bounce. Bat face opened and it was going up and above. Sutherland moved to the left from mid-off and took it 21/28.6 Abbott strikes in his first over after starring with the bat, nicks off Ottley with a fullish ball outside off. He went for an expansive drive through cover. Ball landed around fourth and angled away, found the edge along the way to the keeper. Four balls on a back of length followed by a full one does the trick 34/322.4 bowled him! Nips in and stays low! Back of a length, pitching on a fourth stump line, this jags back sharply off the seam and shoots very low. It crashes into off three-quarters of the way up. Hope was expecting it to bounce way over bail height. Hope was on his knees after it went through him 87/428.1 caught behind! 130kph, good length wide of off, he tries to square drive on the up, the width was there, the length was not, gets a thin edge and it's an easy catch for Inglis 108/540.5 Stunning one hander from Green at midwicket. He flew low and got his left hand out. Managed to keep the palm above the turf. Third umpire's checking. He asks for a zoomed picture and is convinced with what he sees. Out given. Was a length ball at the pads which hurried Chase and cramped him for room as he flicked. Ball went high off the sticker and Green got it almost with a left-arm-orthodox bowler's grip 167/932.3 Sutherland has a wicket! Skied to Abbott at mid-off! Seam up on off, not quite a half-volley, he tries to loft over mid-off but gets under it, Abbott back tracks and takes the catch easily 10 metres back from the circle. 126/634.1 Looked good, yes, given lbw. Has Forde hit it? He reviews quickly. There is a spike on Hotspot. Snicko has to be brought in. Third umpire reckons there's a gap between bat and pad. It beat the full-faced push on the inside edge. Hit around the knee-roll in front of middle and Hawk-Eye thinks it'd go on to clip leg. 134/737.5 Joseph can't clear the deep-square-leg boundary! He went across, stayed in the crease and tried to clobber the fullish ball across the line. Hit hard and flat but the sub fielder was right in position for a fingers-pointing-up catch 157/843.3 Beats the slog sweep and hits the back leg. Given lbw right away, reviewed. Full and floaty at 76ks, landed around middle and leg and straightened. Went below the bat. Nothing on Hotspot or Snicko. Hawk-Eye shows it's hitting top of middle 175/10Extras8 (b 1, lb 5, nb 1, w 1)TOTAL175 all out (43.3 Overs, RR: 4.02)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Alick Athanaze, 3.3 ov), 2-21 (Justin Greaves, 4.4 ov), 3-34 (Kjorn Ottley, 8.6 ov), 4-87 (Shai Hope, 22.4 ov), 5-108 (Keacy Carty, 28.1 ov), 6-126 (Romario Shepherd, 32.3 ov), 7-134 (Matthew Forde, 34.1 ov), 8-157 (Alzarri Joseph, 37.5 ov), 9-167 (Roston Chase, 40.5 ov), 10-175 (Oshane Thomas, 43.3 ov)
