- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.6 Green runs back from backward point to pouch a skier! Good bowling. King advanced early and went leg side, Zampa threw it wider, King was nowhere near the pitch as he tried to loft over cover, he gets a thick top edge that flies over point and Green with those huge strides gets back to take the catch very well 63/18.1 Marsh pouches a skier back with the flight! Tossed up outside off, Hope tries to launch over long-off and slices it high over cover, Marsh tracks back with the flight from inside the circle and takes an even better catch than Green's diving to the turf. Great fielding from Australia 63/210.6 gone this time!! Another short ball from Maxwell despite the short boundary on the leg side. Hetmyer goes pulling at this ball which angles back in towards leg yet again but finds the man at fine leg. He walks back with a shake of the head one ball after DRS just saved him. Australia's spinners are executing it perfectly on a slow surface, and West Indies are losing their way 82/313.3 got him!! Chase gets a bottom edge on to the off stump. This one wasn't as loopy as the last ball, but Chase looked to repeat the shot that got him six. Zampa bowled full and around sixth stump, before the ball turned away very slightly. Chase went launching down the ground again, but this time was beaten 98/418.2 caught at deep midwicket! The slower ball works for Ellis yet again. It was the slower bouncer, as Ellis dug it just outside off. The ball got big on Powell, who still went ahead with the pull. But the ball was skied off the top half of the bat, and Green did well to move forward and grab it comfortably 148/813.5 taken at deep midwicket! West Indies are collapsing, just like they had two days back. Rutherford spotted this length delivery dipping around middle and leg or thereabouts, and went about heaving across the line. But the lack of pace meant he had to generate plenty of power, which he failed to do 98/516.5 gone!! Russell's farewell ends after an aggressive 36 off 15 balls. The Australia players congratulate him on a great career. It was typical of Russell in his last game: attacking, confident, and merciless. The whole of Sabina Park is up to applaud one of the greatest T20 players ever. This is how it all ended: Ellis bowled a slower delivery on a length, and seeing that the ball was there in the zone, Russell went swinging at it. But he could only manage to send the ball up a few hundred miles in the air, before Inglis took a few steps forward to grab it 139/617.4 and the fall continues! The manner is similar to the last game, when the West Indies batters looked to have a swing in the death overs, but failed to clear the fielders. A length delivery from Dwarshuis, which pitches around off. Holder gets his front leg out of the way to try and loft down the ground, but finds Maxwell, who is placed a good few steps inside the boundary 142/7Extras13 (b 2, lb 3, w 8)TOTAL172/8 (20 Overs, RR: 8.6)Did not bat: AJ HoseinFall of wickets: 1-63 (Brandon King, 7.6 ov), 2-63 (Shai Hope, 8.1 ov), 3-82 (Shimron Hetmyer, 10.6 ov), 4-98 (Roston Chase, 13.3 ov), 5-98 (Sherfane Rutherford, 13.5 ov), 6-139 (Andre Russell, 16.5 ov), 7-142 (Jason Holder, 17.4 ov), 8-148 (Rovman Powell, 18.2 ov)
