6.30pm: Zampa and Lyon set up the victory, taking three wickets each, to dismiss West Indies for 116. Warner and Finch laid the platform for the chase with a 44-run opening stand. Khawaja flickered briefly and then Narine caused a middle-order wobble, but Warner completed his half-century and the chase.

Presentation:

Jason Holder: We din't bat well and there was no excuses. We din't put enough runs on the board. We lost wickets in clusters and we were not to build any partnerships. It was a bad batting display and we need to put this behind us. Seven soft dismissals and we need to spend some time in the wicket. I don't think the bowlers can be faulted.

Steven Smith: It would have been nice to keep it clinical. To get over the line with a bonus point, it is still pretty pleasing. Hopefully, we can keep building. The spinners were magnificent today. It may be the same surface against SA and they are licking their lips. Warner was calm and composed and got the team over the line. South Africa will be a challenge and I daresay it will be a battle of spinners, they will also play two spinners. The guys are coming off the IPL and it was nice to get this game out of the way with a bonus point.

Lyon, Man of the Match: I was pretty happy with the effort. To bowl WI out for 116 was a good effort. Zampa is a good mate and great to see him come along leaps and bounds. Great place to play cricket and it is going to be spin-friendly in the next game against South Africa.

That is all we have for you. Thanks for tuning in. Goodbye and cheers!
