8.13pm And Australia have declared. So it's 199 for 6, which means they have set West Indies a massive 497 to win. We have about 26 overs left today before the innings break, and two full days to bat. It will take some effort for them to stay in this match. A lot will depend on the openers who have scored in the series but they will need massive knocks to put in a fight. And Starc will be breathing fire already in the innings break. Eknath will take over after the short break.

Aimen : "Kohli, Root and Smith all out almost back to back as now no one has to switch between the screens. Calmness "

wickdwitchowest: "Thomas' celebration of his catch has endeared himself to that part of the crowd. They are now cheering everything he does. Great!"

Phillip to Head, 1 run, 114.6kmh, was there bat on that? If there was, it's been dropped again. Slow and short down the leg side, Head went for the pull and maybe gloved it behind, where Da Silva went for a dive after a couple of steps and he got a hand but couldn't catch it
