West Indies v Australia - 3rd Test - Day 2 - Tea break - Live Score and Update
Australia 328 v West Indies - 75/3 (31.0 ov)
On the second day of the third and final Test between hosts http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746, the hosts have scored 75 runs for the loss of three wickets at tea in response to the first innings total of 328 runs posted by Australia, at Windsor Park, Roseau, Dominica on Tuesday, April 24.
After ending the first day of play by posting 212 runs for the loss of seven wickets, Australia resumed their innings, but looked in trouble as they had lost their main batsmen and it was only a matter of time before the rest of the wickets were expected to fall, which would have put the Aussies on the back foot in the match.
Nonetheless, it was wicketkeeper/batsman, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Matthew-Wade-c1933’s, day to shine as the player who until now had given a mediocre performance with the bat, rattled the opposition and stood defiant against all odds to give the hosts a h**l of a time, by denying the Windies an early start to their innings.
Had the batsman faltered earlier, Australia would not have been able to post a massive tally on the board which placed them in a commanding position in the series finale.
Starc was the first wicket of the day as he departed after scoring 35 runs, leaving the side on 226 runs on the board.
Meanwhile, Wade hammered a sensational knock of 106 runs before his demise, at a time when Australia were sitting on 328 runs. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/BW-Hilfenhaus-c1204 was the last wicket to fall after he belted an innings of 19 runs.
From West Indies, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/S-Shillingford-c2397 was the most successful bowler with six wickets to his name.
West Indies then had a terrible start to their innings as they lost their first wicket with only a run on the board as opener http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kraigg-Brathwaite-c71708 perished without scoring a run.
However, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kieran-Omar-Akeem-Powell-c71441 then took control of the situation as they belted a potent partnership, steering the side to 62 runs before the fall of Barath, who mustered 29 runs.
Just before tea, West Indies lost their third wicket as star middle-order batsman, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DM-Bravo-c1386, got dismissed after scoring 10 runs, leaving the side on 73 runs.
