West Indies v Australia - 3rd Test - Stumps Day 2 - Live Score and Update
Australia 328 v West Indies 165/8 (65.0 ov) - West Indies trail by 163 runs with 2 wickets remaining in the 1st innings
Dominica: At stumps on the second day of the third Test between http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746, the Windies now trail by 163 runs with only two wickets in hand in their first innings, at Windsor Park, Roseau, Dominica.
After bowling-out the Aussies on a staggering total of 328 runs, the hosts 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 troubling the scorers.
The early loss of their first wicket, however, did not intimidate the hosts as opener http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kieran-Omar-Akeem-Powell-c71441 took charge and stood defiant against the aggressive Australians.
Nonetheless, the resistance came to an end on the wicket of Barath, who fell after hammering a knock of 29 runs off 76 deliveries.
By tea, West Indies had amassed 75 runs on the board for the loss of only three wickets and were looking in a comfortable position, but this changed as the Australians made an astounding comeback in the match by dismantling West Indies batting line-up piece by piece.
Powell was the first wicket to fall after tea as the batsman walked back to the pavilion with an innings of 40 runs to his name.
His departure trigged a batting collapse as the hosts started losing wickets at almost random, putting more strain on the remaining batsmen to do well against an extremely confident Australian outfit.
From Australia, 24-year-old http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Nathan-Michael-Lyon-c78822 was exceptional as he grabbed three wickets, while the rest of the Aussie bowlers rallied along.
Skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/S-Chanderpaul-c2390, but this effort met its doom on the run out of West Indies skipper on 10 runs.
The Windies now have Chanderpaul unbeaten on 34 and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-Rampaul-c2233 on 24 runs as the side ended the day in a desperate position.
The hosts will need to give a miraculous batting show tomorrow if they want to stay in the match, or else Australia will be taking the series by the end of this match.
