I was glad we lost, totally deserved we underestimated the Windies and overated ourselves. Certainly not used to bowlers bowling over 140ks to us. Congrats to the Windies!
Cheers big ears

Smith:

Smith almost pulled off an audacious solo rescue mission, ramping Alzarri Joseph for six in the penultimate over before No.11 Josh Hazlewood became hero Shamar Joseph's seventh wicket to signal West Indies' celebrations.

"He was fantastic; this whole series he's looked really sharp," captain Pat Cummins said.

"Two dismissals were the only two balls he hasn't looked like he's middled.

He's been class for 15 years and he was brilliant the way he managed the innings through the passages last night and today and almost single-handedly dragged us over the line."

Very enjoyable test match. Great to see the Windies win.

First test win against Australia (home or away) since 2003, and their first win down under since 1997.

Shamar Joseph is a future star in the making.
