Here are some of the best bets for this West Indies vs Australia 3rd Test match.
Mitchell Starc was excellent in the previous game, picking 3 for 24 in the second innings. The left-arm pacer loves bowling with the pink ball. He has taken 74 wickets in the day-night matches at an exceptional average of 18.14, with four five-wicket hauls.
Alex Carey has been one of the best batters in this series. He has scored 166 runs from four innings at an average of 42. The wicket-keeper batter has made 65, 63, and 30 in three of the four innings.
Pat Cummins has taken six wickets in the ongoing series while scoring 58 runs with the bat. He hasn’t quite lit up the scene, but you can back him to do well in the pink ball Test.
Sabina Park in Kingston, Jamaica, has historically been a bowling-friendly venue. The pitches here offer good assistance for seamers. In a day-night pink ball Test, pacers should dominate the proceedings. The average first and second innings score at the venue reads 315 and 329, respectively.
ALSO READ:
These two rivals have competed against each other in 133 matches in Test cricket history. Australia dominate the scoreline with 63 wins, whereas West Indies have been victorious on 33 occasions. The Aussies lead the last five encounters by 4-1.
The home side put up a much better performance in the second Test in St George’s but ended up losing by 133 runs. Alzarri Joseph bagged 4 for 61 to bowl out Australia for 286 before Brandon King scored a superb 75 to help the team get to 253.
West Indies bowled out the visitors for 243 in the second innings but a target of 277 proved to be too much for them. None of their batters could touch the 35-run mark.
West Indies could bring in Kevlon Anderson for this game in place of John Campbell.
Possible XI: Kraigg Brathwaite, Kevlon Anderson, Keacy Carty, Brandon King, Justin Greaves, Roston Chase (c), Shai Hope (wk), Shamar Joseph, Alzarri Joseph, Anderson Phillip, Jayden Seales.
