On the first day of the first Test at Kensington Oval, West Indies bowlers Jayden Seales and Shamar Joseph destroyed the Australian batting order for a mere 180.
Joseph’s hostile spell rocked Australia’s top order, bringing the visitors down to 22 for three early on a bouncy pitch, before Seales stole the show with an incredible five-wicket haul.
In response, Australia’s bowlers mounted a quick comeback of their own. In a match that was perfectly balanced following a thrilling day of cricket, Mitchell Starc, skipper Pat Cummins, and Josh Hazlewood all shared four wickets to leave the West Indies at 57 for four at stumps, still behind by 123 runs.
