8.38pm The music is blaring, the crowd is singing, WI players shake hands with each other and joy abounds Basseterre because West Indies have done exceptionally well in their chase to thrash Australia on a tricky surface. Chasing 266, West Indies' openers gave them a lightning start to set up the chase. Significant contributions through the middle order, led by Samuels' 92, ensured there were no hiccups against a quality bowling attack. This win opens up this tri-series nicely.
Time for the presentation.
Marlon Samuels is the Man of the Match: "Most important thing was we won the game. Better than making a 100 and the team lose. There are some teams that you don't score against. We are gelling together a steam, we are building a team. We'll be hard to beat in the future."
Steven Smith: "We were 15-20 short. Should have got a few more than we did. Credit to West Indies, they bowled well. We didn't execute as well as we liked. Got to find ways to score a few more. Have to try to keep in the game and take wickets to make it go for as long as possible. We didn't field like an Australian side today, not up to scratch."
Jason Holder: "Had a bit of bounce early in the pitch. Important to control the Powerplay. We controlled reasonably well and knew we were one wicket away from getting into their middle order. Batsmen put up their hands today. That's what we ask of batsmen. Means a lot to us, we have lacked consistency over the past few years.

43.6
Coulter-Nile to Brathwaite, no run, honing in on that off stump but Brathwaite's bat intervenes. Much better over from NCN
43.5
Coulter-Nile to Brathwaite, no run, yorker on off, blocked
Brathwaite
43.4
Coulter-Nile to Holder, OUT, gone. Holder is given. But he opts for the review. Good length delivery outside off, which jags back in again. Holder attempts a big swing and the ball goes through between bat and pad. Looks like he has missed it, but there is a sound. Not sure what it is. Swerves back in and Wade collects well, diving to his left. Not enough evidence to overturn this apparently, and Holder cannot believe it. Hangs on his bat before trudging off ever so slowly. Would have stayed not out had he been given not out. On replays, looks like there is a big deviation as the ball passes the bat, so good decision
JO Holder c †Wade b Coulter-Nile 0 (2m 2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
43.3
Coulter-Nile to Holder, no run, full on off, good line that. Driven to cover

43.2
Coulter-Nile to Ramdin, OUT, that is probably where NCN should have been from the start. Bowls the offcutter slightly wider outside off, and Ramdin wants to guide to third man but doesn't account for prodigious movement back into him. Goes right in the gap between bat and pad and clatters into off stump
D Ramdin b Coulter-Nile 29 (59m 38b 1x4 1x6) SR: 76.31
43.1
Coulter-Nile to Ramdin, FOUR, whipped past square leg this time and there is no deep fielder so WI inch closer. Looking for that inswinger but too straight again

A Zampa 7-0-60-2
MR Marsh 8-0-30-0
42.6
Zampa to Pollard, SIX, phew. That is ridiculous. Unbelievable. Nonsense. What? Tossed up outside off, Pollard tried to go over long-on by dragging it but got more of a leading edge which flies over cover. And went a fair way back too. A 90 degree change in shot direction, still enough muscle behind it.
42.5
Zampa to Pollard, no run, flat on middle and leg, pushed to midwicket
42.4
Zampa to Ramdin, 1 run, shortish and wide, slashed to deep point
Matthew: "That's the second time I've seen Smith yell at the umpire as if demanding an explanation from the umpire when not getting his way, it's a terrible thing to see from a captain"
