2:16pm A see-saw innings, which ultimately ends with West Indies have overhauled Australia's first innings score. When the day began, they would have been fearing the worst, given how much the ball was jagging around. Hope and Chase, though, buckled down and ate significantly into Australia's total. Alzarri then played a vital cameo towards the end, causing a bit of frustration for the visitors.
West Indies had to deal with frustration of their own as well, with a few third-umpire calls going against them. How big an impact that might have, or how crucial they prove to be remains to be seen, but Australia, with just a ten-run arrears to wipe off now, will feel they have a chance to set the game and probably even surge ahead.
Tea has also been taken, and we will be back in a bit to guide you through Australia's second innings.
JNT Seales c Webster b Lyon 2 (21m 13b 0x4 0x6) SR: 15.38
Around the wicket to Seales too. Slip and short leg in place
Lyon to try his luck. Around the wicket. Can he entice Alzarri into a false stroke?

This partnership, worth 18 already, will be frustrating Australia
BeardGuy: "WI has a King, their captain is a guy named Chase, and their keeper is Hope. How can they NOT boss the fourth innings?" -- And if it comes to that, they have a guy named Seales to seal the deal too...
