2.3 to DR Smith, slightly short again and this time Smith perishes! Lee slung a fast delivery well outside off, the batsman tried to cut but got just a sliver of bat on it, Matt Wade taking a comfortable catch. 19/1
18.5 to DJG Sammy, holes out to long-off! Pitched up by Lee, again well outside off, Sammy wasn nowhere near the pitch and his heave down the ground came off the bottom of the bat. 144/6

6.2 to J Charles, pitched up, misses with a swipe across the line ... gone! Watson didn't do anything spectacular with that delivery but it was on target and that's sometimes all you need. Charles goes lbw after a colourful cameo. 38/2

10.5 to DM Bravo, toe ends a pull shot and Bravo is gone! The ball wasn't quite short enough, Bravo got under it and the catch looped fairly gently out towards deep midwicket, where the fielder had to run a long way in to claim it. 66/3
12.1 to NE Bonner, bowled him, top of middle! Another wicket for Christian and the wheels are falling off for West Indies! Bonner's somewhat ponderous innings ends with a skip down the wicket, missing with his attempted swipe and seeing his bails go pop. 72/4
16.6 to DJ Bravo, lofted drive and taken at long-off. Bravo doesn't have quite the same muscle as Pollard and he got under a punched shot off a length ball, unable to clear the man in the deep. 134/5

0.5 to DA Warner, got him, bowled through the gate! Santokie shuffled in, sent the ball down on middle, right up in the blockhole, Warner played across the line and the stumps are pegged back. Australia's danger man up top is gone!. 0/1

12.4 to SR Watson, shorter this time and Watson gets under it, looping the ball high out to deep midwicket again but this time it's not got the legs and Kieron Pollard pouches. West Indies get the breakthrough they need - but is it too late?. 108/2
