Bravo dances down the track, reaches the pitch of the ball, drives it to mid-on and before the throw comes in, they cross over for the matchwinning single. West Indies win by three wickets and they are almost ensured of a place in the finals.

Full commentary
Phew! What drama as Australia fought back hard and almost stormed their way back into the game. West Indies were coasting at one point but then contrived to lose a few wickets in a heap, raising blood pressures across the Caribbean before Dwayne Bravo, displaying a cool head, steered them home.

Take that! Awesome shot over long-off. Slower one, fullish outside the off stump, Bravo leans forward and goes through the line of the ball, top-hand comes off the bat-handle and West Indies now need only two runs.

Baugh breaks free. It was tossed up outside the off stump, overpitched and Baugh frees his arms and sends the ball crashing into the cover fence. Surely West Indies can't lose now?
