WI vs AUS Live Cricket Score

3.2 OUT! STUMPED! Cooper Connolly provides the first breakthrough, and the dangerous-looking Brandon King is gone! Cooper tosses it up nicely, and keeps it on the tempting length, around middle, getting it to turn away a bit. King tries to take on the bowler as he uses his feet and looks to go for a big lofted shot downtown, but gets beaten by the flight and turn, and that dragged down length. The ball beats the outside edge of the bat, and the keeper, Josh Inglis, collects it behind the stumps and dislodges the bails before King could have come back in. Brandon King departs on 18 (12) and West Indies are 32/1. 32/1

15.3 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! The pace off works for Owen and he registers his maiden T20I wicket! Rolls the fingers on the leather, does Owen, full and around off. Shai Hope finds the ball in his wheelhouse and looks to smack it over the off side, but is through his shot a bit too early and ends up toe-ending it high up in the sky. The ball balloons up, has the elevation, but not the distance, and descends to the backward point region. Jake Fraser-McGurk settles under the steepler and takes a good reverse cup catch above his face. Shai Hope departs for 55 (39) and West Indies are 159/3. 159/3

12.3 OUT! CAUGHT! A good catch has ended a classy inning of Chase! A slower delivery, full and around off, Roston Chase clears out his front leg away and looks to take on the bowler as he goes for a big lofted shot downtown. But he gets undone by the change of pace on the ball and goes off the toe end. It travels only as far as long on, where Glenn Maxwell takes a few steps forward and pouches it around his waist height. Australia finally get a breakthrough as Ben Dwarshuis breaks this 91-run stand for the second wicket. Roston Chase departs on a rollicking 60 (32) and West Indies are 123/2. 123/2

19.3 OUT! CAUGHT! EXPERTLY HELD IN THE DEEP! Nathan Ellis angles it wide and across off, on a good length, Shimron Hetmyer stays back and hammers it flat over mid off. The ball travels towards long off. But Cameron Green runs to his right, times the leap to perfection and plucks the ball out of thin air. Takes a fabulous reverse cup catch over his head. Ellis, too, registers a wicket to his name. Shimron Hetmyer departs for a handy 38 (19) and West Indies slip further down from 184/4 to 186/8. 186/8

16.1 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! A soft dismissal for Powell and Abbott registers his first wicket. Full length and on the stumps. Powell uses the bottom hand and just does not complete the follow-through after playing the shot. Ends up chipping it to the left of long on. Times it well enough, though, and it sails to the left of long on. Glenn Maxwell moves to the ball and takes a comfortable catch. Rovman Powell departs for 1(3) and West Indies are 166/4. 166/4

18.3 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! CAUGHT! Brilliant take by the towering Cameron Green in the deep! Dre Russ departs without much fireworks in his penultimate T20I match! Full and around off, Andre Russell stands deep in the crease and tries to clear long off with a lofted shot. But he certainly does not get the bat under the ball and hence, does not get the required distance and elevation. The ball sails flat and dips to the left of long off. Cameron Green moves to his right and takes a good catch. Andre Russell departs for 8 (9) and West Indies are 184/5. 184/5

18.4 OUT! TAKEN! Ben Dwarshuis gets his third, and he is on a Hat-Trick now! Australia are clawing their way back in the contest here. Shortish delivery on the top of the middle stump, Rutherford clears the front leg to give himself some room for a big pull shot. But ends up getting a top edge and it balloons up a mile in the air. The man from deep backward square leg, Sean Abbott, runs in and snaffles the catch, getting low on his haunches. A golden duck for Sherfane Rutherford and the West Indies are 184/6. 184/6

19 OUT! CAUGHT! Another one falls and this is a triple strike from Ben Dwarshuis! Slower delivery on a length and the line of attack is around off and middle, Holder just chips it in the air, and wide of long on as Glenn Maxwell takes a fine catch in the deep, to his left. A silver duck for Jason Holder and West Indies are 184/7. 184/7

5.1 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! An excellent review from Windies and Hope! On a hard length and around off, gets to move back in a bit and then straightens out after hitting the deck. Mitchell Marsh remains deep in his crease and slightly clears out his front leg away to go for a big shot downtown. He tries to whip it across, but doesn't connect well, and the ball goes close to the outside edge, and Shai Hope gathers it to his left. Hope believes that there's a definite noise as the ball passed the bat, and he takes a review after consulting with his players. Third umpire is called in and he checks the replays. UltraEdge shows a clear spike, and Marsh will have to go back. Australia are 46/2. 46/2

2 OUT! GONE! CAUGHT! Jason Holder draws first blood, and a scratchy start for Jake Fraser-McGurk comes to an end! Holder gets a good bounce, outside off, on a short of a length. Jake Fraser-McGurk rises on the toes to flat bat it over cover, but the ball seemingly gets big on him and he ends up hitting with the toe end of the bat. Alzarri Joseph moves forward from mid off and takes a fine catch. Australia are 12/1. 12/1

6.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Akeal Hosein strikes on his return to the attack and Australia lose their third! Hosein floats up and around middle and leg, Josh Inglis stays leg side of the ball and goes across on his knees to access the leg side. He goes for a big shot downtown but gets beaten in the flight. Generates a top edge that goes towards deep square leg, where Alzarri Joseph quickly moves to his left and keeps his eyes on the ball before taking this catch around his chest height. Australia are 64/3. 64/3

15 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! CAUGHT! A fifty and out for Green, but he has ensured that his side stays alive in the chase! Gudakesh Motie gets his second wicket. He lands it a yard behind fuller length, gets a good grip as the ball turns away off the deck. Cameron Green goes deep in the crease and tries to play the pull shot, but due to that extra bounce, he ends up losing his shape and slices it high up in the air towards long on. Jason Holder patrolling the boundary in the deep, settles under the skier and takes a fine catch. Cameron Green departs for 51 off just 26 balls, and Australia are 158/5, needing 32 off the last 5 overs. 158/5

8.2 OUT! CAUGHT! The awkward stay of Glenn Maxwell comes to an end and Gudakesh Motie strikes on his second ball only! Frantically short and around middle and leg, tries not to give any room to the batter. Maxwell again makes room and attempts to go for a big lofted shot over cover again. But the ball is slower and a bit far from his body. He still goes for a shot and connects it with the cue end of the bat. The ball goes high in the air towards cover, where Sherfane Rutherford runs around in circles and takes it around his chest height. Australia are in a desperate situation at 78/4. 78/4

16.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Fifty and out, second time for an Aussie batter! On a dragged back length and around middle and leg, it seems to be a slower one. Mitchell Owen clears out his front leg again and tries to replicate that previous shot. But he gets deceived by the lack of pace on it and ends up chipping it aerially towards long on, where Jason Holder runs forward, locks his eyes on the ball, settles under it, and takes it low around his waist height. Mitchell Owen, on his T20I debut, departs for a pivotal 50 (27). Australia are 175/6, needing 15 more runs. 175/6

17.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! West Indies keep fighting hard as Australia lose their seventh and Cooper Connolly is gone! A slower delivery, back of a length and wide outside off, Cooper shuffles across and looks to slash at it without any foot movement. The ball gets big on him due to an extra bounce and he only manages to get an outside edge that goes behind the wickets, where the keeper Shai Hope takes a simple catch to his left. Australia are 181/7, needing just 9 runs. 181/7
