Cam Green out first ball of the day shouldering arms to a ball hitting off stump
He has to stop the " leave " being his favourite shot Aus 7-104"
 
Boland out bowled middle stump for 1 Aus 9 -116
Weve added just 17 Starc has added 16 of them
Wait Shamar finally bowls a bad ball to Hazo who tickles it down leg for 4
9 -121
Starc looking comfortable but that is also a worry as Windies might be also when batting
 
Hazelwood clean bowled 3rd ball
AUST all out 121
Today Green out 1st ball , Cummins out 5th ball ,Boland out 11th ball
Hazelwood out 3rd ball
Lost today 4-22
Only Starc knew how to bat scored 11 +5 leg byes while he batted for 26 balls
With no plays and misses ,Looked comfortable
What a fragile lower order ! Actually what a fragile batting order !
Windies need 204 !
WHO KNOWS !
 
Gets better Starc a plumb lbw 5th ball
Batter reviews ? Hitting middle half way up
STARC 6TH BALL CLEAN BOWLS A THIRD
FIRST OVER STARC 3 FOR 0 !
BUILD THE MAN A STATUE !
STARC 399 TEST WICKETS
 
Last time Aust played Windies in test in Jamaica was 10 years ago
Apparently Starc got 2 wickets in his 1st over then
Says a lot about Starcs longevity
 
Dinner break
Windies 6-22
Australia lose 4 -22
10 for 44 in a session
But keep in mind Australia lost bottom order wickets
Windies lose top order wickets
Starcs figure
5 overs 4 maidens 5 for 6
Historic
Windies have an absolute world class bowling attack as we do and its such a pity that their batting is so poor .Australia's batting is also poor but not as bad as the Windies is .
Azzari Joseph ,Shamar Joseph ,Jayden Seales , Justin Greases
Mitchell Starc , Josh Hazelwood , Pat Cummins , Scott Boland

Two absolutely great bowling line ups
The batting Head tops the series runs and that's not unusual
The rest not a lot to get excited about
The worry is how many of our batsmen get out in the same way

We have to come up with 7 in form batsmen by Nov
Windies need 182 more runs with 4 wickets left but at least the windies bowlers batting and they seem better at both

Its a privilege to witness history as Mitch just provided
 
Boland gets Greaves 1st ball of 2nd over Windies 7-26;
Both Joseph's in now these are the 2 bowlers that got 9 wickets between them Boland another Windies 8 -26;
Scottie Boland a HAT TRICK Windies 9-26;
I've been watching cricket a very long time and never seen anything like this
EVER !!!!!
BOLAND 2 OVERS 3 FOR 2
STARC 6 FOR 9 clean bowls Seales
WINDIES ALL OUT 27

Ps : Windies not out batsman was Azzarri Joseph who was dropped twice by Konstas off Mitchell Starcs bowling

Lowest ever total in test cricket NZ 26 in 1955
Windies were 26 but a miss field by guess who Konstas allowed them the 27th run .feel sorry for the kid !
Australia win by 176 runs
1st test won by 159 runs
2nd test won by 133 runs
3rd test won by 176 runs
3 tests Australia have 36 points in new WTC cycle a perfect start .

We still have a few worries about the Ashes that is our batting !
 
Not a bad way to celebrate your 100th test
7.3 overs 4 maidens 6 wickets for 9 runs
Starc Man of the match and series
