For the West Indies, their skipper Roston Chase (44) and Shai Hope (48) performed best from their side. Some of the most eye-soothing shots came from Hope's bat. 

Australia skipper Pat Cummins gave his team one of the important breakthroughs of the innings in Roston Chase. Cummins took the wicket of his counterpart through a leg before the wicket. Alzarri Joseph in the lower order came and played a quick 23-run innings to boost up his team's total. West Indies was able to reach 190 in the first innings in reply to Australia's 180.
