6.05pm The West Indies innings followed the bell curve: nothing at the start, nothing at the end but a century stand in the middle. Bartlett picked up three early to leave them on 59 for 4. Keacy Carty and Roston Chase added 110 for the fifth wicket. And then the last five wickets fell in 38 runs and West Indies were bowled out for 231. Bartlett finished with 4 for 17 - the second best ODI figures on debut for Australia behind current selector Tony Dodemaide. Ekanth will be back for the chase shorly. Stay tuned.

Abbott to Walsh, OUT, Labuschagne makes amends with an excellent catch. Walsh charges at the short ball and pulls it to the right of deep midwicket. Labuschagne sprints to his right and puts in the slide to pouch it with both hands. And that also means no debut five-for for Bartlett

Abbott to Motie, 2 runs, a comedy of errors. A length ball around off. Motie backs away and smashes it through extra cover. Head was a few yards inside the boundary line, He had to dive to his left but the ball bursts through his hands. He recovers and fires in the throw to the keeper. Motie was looking for the third. It's not a great throw and the keeper had to move forward to collect it. He still had the chance as Motie was almost halfway down the pitch. Inglis looks to flick it on the stumps but misses and Motie makes back home safely
