Umer: "West Indies should back themselves to chase this target down"
10:43am: WI take an hour and a quarter to knock over the last three. Shamar has four. Alzarri closed it off. Cummins fell in the first over of the day. Shamar got seam movement to dismiss him, he got Carey with the same and the help of DRS. Starc ticked along meanwhile and got a few late runs to push the target to 277. 23 runs today, pitch has assisted the pacers so far. A couple of body blows and inside edges, so Australia's bowlers will be interested. Sammy seems to have signalled for the light roller. Time is no issue, weather's good for now too. Shashwat will be in to start the chase after the ten-minute break.

Sami: "Ah the most annoying pair...Hazelwood and Starc. I think their purpose is just to frustrate oppositions." Better with bat than ball though
