Roseau (Dominica): <\/strong>Brittle batting returned to haunt the West Indies as they suffered a familiar collapse to leave Australia in control of the third and final Test here at Windsor Park.<\/p>\n

Chasing Australia’s first innings of 328, the West Indies were tottering on 165 for eight, still 163 runs adrift, at the end of tne second day Tuesday.<\/p>\n

They were batting on 62 for one at one stage after lunch but lost seven wickets for 58 runs as off-spinner Nathan Lyon undermined the innings with three for 49.<\/p>\n

The damage could have been greater, but the ever dependable Shiv Chanderpaul joined Ravi Rampaul in a 45-run ninth-wicket stand to prop up the innings late in the day.<\/p>\n

Chanderpaul was unbeaten on 34 from 110 balls with two fours while Rampaul scored a breezy 24 from 33 balls with four fours.<\/p>\n

Earlier, Matthew Wade’s maiden first class century robbed the West Indies of any early advantage as the left-hander played superbly to convert his overnight 22 into 106.<\/p>\n

He outshone off-spinner Shane Shillingford who picked up two of the three wickets to fall in the morning session to finish with six for 119, to log his first five-wicket haul in Tests.<\/p>\n

Wade, however, played outstandingly and once he reached his half-century, accelerated to post his second fifty off just 33 balls.<\/p>\n

Overall, he faced 146 balls and hammered 10 fours and three sixes.<\/p>\n

He led a strong lower order revival, ensuring Australia added 159 runs for the last three wickets and further frustrate the West Indies.<\/p>\n

Wade extended his overnight eighth-wicket stand with Mitchell Starc (35) to 57 before snuffing the life out of the regional side with an exhilarating 102-run, ninth-wicket partnership with Ben Hilfenhaus (19).<\/p>\n

West Indies got yet another shaky start when teenaged opener Kraigg Brathwaite fell in just the third over without scoring before Adrian Barath and Kieran Powell steadied the innings in a 61-run stand before the former was taken at short leg by Ed Cowan off Lyon.<\/p>\n

In the next over from part-time leg-spinner David Warner, Darren Bravo collected a pair of boundaries before giving Cowan the easiest of catches, off an inside edge off his pad.<\/p>\n

Powell, dropped on 30 by Ricky Ponting at short cover off Lyon, survived until the fourth over after tea when he dragged on a cut at Lyon, as the West Indies slipped to 85 for four.<\/p>\n

With 11 runs added, Narsingh Deonarine was lbw to seamer Harris after the Aussies challenged the original not out verdict and Baugh also fell to Lyon, caught bat-pad.<\/p>\n

Captain Darren Sammy was run out for 10 by a direct hit as he attempted a quick single while Shillingford was bowled first ball by left-armer Starc, leaving the Windies in tatters. (IANS)
