Healy and Haynes walk out. The West Indies look in good spirits as they high-five each other before walking out. Hayley Matthews with the ball. A slip in.

Thanks Ekanth. An early finish on the cards. Can the West Indies do something about it?

It has indeed been a difficult endeavour for West Indies today. They can restore some pride by taking a few wickets. An Australian win is almost, if not completely inevitable. Srivathsa Vennelaganti will join to take you through it soon.

Varun: "Can't help but feel for the West Indies. They have just 3 good batters. The standard of women's cricket in the Caribbean is not enough to put up a good playing 11. Whatever success they have had in recent past is by one of those 3 players playing big innings."

Raji: "Please open with Ash and get this done so I can go to sleep. Got early morning meeting., "

David: "So, any thoughts on how many overs Aus will look to knock these off in? 30 would be a pretty easy canter." For Srivathsa's sake, I'll say 18

Jared: "@Josh - perhaps they were intended to match up with the top order through the middle overs. But the top order didn't make it to the middle overs"

2:28 pm Australia have bowled 46 overs just within 3 hours. Ever since Perry knocked over the top-order, this was always an uphill turtle sprint. Everything that could have gone wrong did for West Indies as they were unable to rotate strike. The spinners motored through the overs, extended the drought, and took wickets. The score prodded, sludged, and tripped its way to 131. Unlike yesterday's games, this does not promise to be competitive.

Cameron: "@Josh- She must have meant "we are slaughtering every team anyway so might as well rotate the team a bit""
