Alzarri makes ground and completes the catch with ease. Hazlewood c Alzarri Joseph b Shamar Joseph 4(2) [4s-1]

Jayden Seales to Cummins, out Caught by Kevlon Anderson!! He's clonked it and clonked it straight into the hands of long-on. Kevlon Anderson with the first catch of his Test career - on a good length and just outside off - Cummins was looking to swing it through the line, but he dragged his shot, came off the lower half and it's a simple catch for the fielder in the deep. Three wickets for Seales. Cummins c Kevlon Anderson b Jayden Seales 24(17) [6s-3]

Jayden Seales to Cummins, SIX, clubbed, back-to-back sixes for Cummins - Seales dragged the length back, but it's right in the slot and Cummins swings through the line, high and over long-on for a maximum

Jayden Seales to Cummins, SIX, cracking shot, handy runs from Cummins - back of a length and angling into the right-hander, Cummins gets inside the line, uses the pace on the ball and helps it over long leg with a well directed pull
68.5
Justin Greaves to Cummins, leg byes, 1 run, a loud shout for LBW, umpire Nitin Menon shakes his head and West Indies review, looks to be clearly headed down leg - full and angling into the right-hander, dipped in front of Cummins and beat him on the inside edge. But the impact is itself is in front of leg and would've slid down leg - stays NOT OUT
68.1
Justin Greaves to Cummins, 1 run, on a length and angling into the right-hander, flicked uppishly and short of deep square leg, the single brings up Australia's 200

W
Jayden Seales to Mitchell Starc, out Bowled!! A duck with the bat for Starc in his 100th Test, the impressive Seales strikes once again. This was full and this kept coming back into the left-hander - Starc doesn't account for the movement, aims an expansive drive - big gap between bat / pad and the ball crashes into the off-stump. West Indies doing well with the ball once again in this series. Mitchell Starc b Jayden Seales 0(4)

Justin Greaves to Carey, out Caught by Shai Hope!! There's a definite inside edge now and West Indies are rattling Australia under lights. On a good length and holding its line wide of off - Carey saw the width and threw his hands on the drive, plays slightly away from his body, gets a thick inside edge and Shai Hope does the rest. Carey could've been dangerous in such a situation, but he's opened up both ends now with his dismissal. They've taken drinks at fall of the 7th wicket. Carey c Shai Hope b Justin Greaves 21(20) [4s-3 6s-1]

Warrican to Cummins, SIX, smashed, tad too full from Warrican - right in the slot, Cummins makes room and then carts it high over long-off for a maximum

W
Justin Greaves to Head, out Caught by (sub)Anderson Phillip!! That's a catch and a half from Anderson Phillip and the dangerous Head departs. This was full and this was wide of off, was there for the drive, but Head is a fraction too early on the shot - lobbed high off the bat and popped wide of mid-off. Anderson Phillip sprinted to his right and then put in a full-fledged dive, getting both hands to the ball and holding on even as his elbows grazed the turf. Needed something special to break this stand and open up Australia's lower-order. Head c (sub)Anderson Phillip b Justin Greaves 20(53) [4s-2]

Justin Greaves to Carey, SIX, wow! 132.9kph, Carey comes down the track, converts this full delivery into a half-volley and times beautifully as he plays an aerial drive. It comes right off the sweet spot and hits the boundary rope on the volley. 2000 Test runs for Carey

Shamar Joseph to Webster, out Caught by Shai Hope!! Shamar finds the nick and the keeper pouches it. Short of length ball marginally outside off, Webster hangs back and pushes with hard hands. Audible outside edge and Shai Hope gets low to catch it with both hands. Webster's legs were off the ground when the ball trimmed the outside edge. This is superb bowling from Joseph - no freebies from him. Webster c Shai Hope b Shamar Joseph 1(9)

Shamar Joseph to Smith, out Caught by Brandon King!! Gone on this occasion! West Indies are cock-a-hoop. 139.1kph, Smith drives expansively outside off and pays the price this time. It's the third outside edge in this session. One went wide of second slip, the other flew over second slip and this one goes straight to first slip. King crouches a bit to hold onto it. It's a length ball that moves slightly outside off, Smith flashes his blade for a hard drive and nicks off. Smith c Brandon King b Shamar Joseph 48(66) [4s-8]

Warrican to Smith, FOUR, a bad fumble and that costs West Indies three extra runs - flighted delivery on middle and leg, Smith got close to the ball and then whipped it to the right of mid-on - Shamar had it covered and then took his eyes off the ball, allowing it to scoot away

Jayden Seales to Green, out Bowled!! Seales follows the previous delivery with another peach and this time he's hit the top of off-stump. Green done in by a superb piece of bowling and all the hard yards of patience has come to nothing. On a length and in that channel around off, angles in and brings the right-hander forward - Green thinks he's covered the line, but the ball then wickedly straightens past the outside edge and clips the top of off-stump - that's an absolute corker and poor Green can only hang back his head in dismay. Green b Jayden Seales 46(108) [4s-5]

Roston Chase to Smith, FOUR, hammered, Smith shimmies down the pitch, makes room and then clatters the drive over cover, got the elevation to clear the fielder in the ring and raced away to the ropes

Shamar Joseph to Khawaja, out Caught by Shai Hope!! That's an outstanding catch from Shai Hope! Shamar Joseph is pumped up! He had beaten the bat of Khawaja on numerous occasions and eventually gets the better of him. A good length ball shaping in from outside off, Khawaja poked at it and got a thick outside edge. Hope dived to his left like a goalkeeper and plucked it one-handed out of thin air while being air borne before tumbling down. The fact that Hope was wrong-footed and initially went to his right and then dived like that to his left is what makes the catch even more special. Khawaja c Shai Hope b Shamar Joseph 23(92) [4s-1]

Shamar Joseph to Green, FOUR, 140.4kph half-volley on off, Green push-drives it through mid-off and finds the fence once again

Jayden Seales to Green, no run, Cameron Green saved by the review!! A fuller delivery angling inwards, beats the inside edge and onto the front pad. Given out by the umpire but ball tracking suggests it was angling down the leg side

Justin Greaves to Sam Konstas, out Lbw!! Justin Greaves strikes first ball!! If only he was introduced a bit earlier perhaps... A fuller delivery that angles in sharply and thuds onto the knee roll as Konstas played the wrong line. His off stump guard made it tougher for him to get the pad out of the way and his bat across. Given out by the umpire and would have crashed onto the top of leg. Konstas reviewed but to no avail. A much deserved wicket for the hosts. Sam Konstas lbw b Justin Greaves 17(53) [4s-2]

Jayden Seales to Sam Konstas, no run, dropped! Pitched up outside off, swinging away, Sam Konstas goes for a drive on the up but gets a thick outside edge. Kevlon Anderson at third slip dives to his left and gets his hands to it but it pops out. Greaves at second slip got a part of his left hand to it but he hardly had time to react. It would have been an easier catch for Greaves
