MATCH NOTES

General

Australia's win ended a West Indies sequence of 15 Tests without defeat since February 1980
At 2.55pm on December 27, Lillee induced an edged stroke from Gomes to pass the world record of 309 wickets held by LR Gibbs (WI).
Lillee achieved his best bowling figures in Tests with 7/83.
Lillee equalled the record (held by SF Barnes and CV Grimmett) for most 10 wickets in a match when he completed the feat for the 7th time.
Lillee took the record for most wickets in a calender year with 85 wickets in 1981 (previously 74 wickets by Kapil Dev in 1979).
Holding's match figures of 11/107 is a record for West Indies v Australia
Murray's 9 catches in the match is a West Indian record
