Mitchell Starc doing Mitchell Starc things. 5fer in 15 balls, including 3 wickets (no hatrick) in the first over of the match.

Once again, an Aussie batters collapse (121 all out) salvaged by this ridiculous bowling attack (West Indies currently 11/6).

Fastest in Test history by 4 balls.

Man, if Windies could bat this would have been some series.

Bloody Konstas!

Windies all out for 27. Starc 6 for 9, Boland 3 for 2.

Bugger !

It’s about time someone took that record off us.

Hang your heads Windies. For a team that has produced arguably more great players than any other you’re very shite now.

Congrats to Mitchell Starc, 18th player to take 400 test wickets.

7 ducks!, extras with 6 was the 2nd top scorer

Meanwhile in the shed, the Windies bowlers looking at their batsmen..

He dropped another catch, and let a non-chance through his hands to concede 4. That probably would have been the record if he could hold onto the ball!

Edit: wait, that wasn't even a drop! The drop was earlier, so two drop catches plus probably 4 runs allowed through misfields.

Their pace bowlers are very good, their batsmen diabolical.

Maybe a match between the bowlers would be more interesting.

Cracks once again papered over for Australia.
Khawaja 117 runs at 19
Konstas 50 runs at 8
Green 180 runs at 30
Smith 127 runs at 32
Head the best with 224 at 37

While you expect a few to turn around back on Aussie decks, that is another poor return from the top order heading in to an Ashes.

I think the three most important Shield rounds in history will be played at the start of the Summer.

Great win for England this morning in what is a quality series.

How can anyone be happy about this? So close and yet we still own that record, feels like Starc let them get a couple of extra runs to ensure the wound never heals lol

The hat trick ball was exactly what you want - top of off
