Match Preview:
The opening Test in Adelaide witnessed Australia’s complete dominance, crushing the West Indies by a massive 10-wicket margin. The Windies batting crumbled under the pressure of the Aussie pace attack, particularly Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood, who bagged impressive four-wicket hauls. In reply, Australia’s openers, David Warner and Marnus Labuschagne, made light work of the 141-run target, ensuring a swift and emphatic victory.
The West Indies will be desperate to redeem themselves in Brisbane and salvage some pride in the series. Their batting needs to show significant improvement, with Kraigg Brathwaite and Jermaine Blackwood needing to step up and provide a solid foundation. The bowling unit, led by Kemar Roach and Shannon Gabriel, will also need to be more disciplined and consistent to contain the formidable Australian batting lineup.
Pitch Report:
The pitch for the recently concluded 2nd Test between Australia and West Indies in January 2024 had a distinct green tinge, indicating additional pace and bounce for the fast bowlers. As the match progressed, the pitch offered more assistance to spinners, but the bounce remained a factor throughout.
