Would've chased, tbh. Given how chokey Roach got v India with the line in sight I don't give much for them restricting Oz to less than within 23 of their score.

Depends on whether the pitch slows up later in the day

Personally, I'd have bowled and looked for the oppo to set a target and chase it down in as few overs as required

Theoretically, Australia can be knocked out - but only if they lose by 151 runs!

No Roach in the West Indies team today in any case.

Nikita Miller replaces him.

This a good move.. adding an additional spiner in place of Roach..

I am telling u guys.. Aus boys have problem playing spin and WI is going to expose that further today..

Got to be massive odds

If there are any bookmakers out there taking bets, I'll put $10 on Oz going home

I know.. I am just trying to be funny and entertaining here..there is no way Aus will be knocked out.. I would love to see West Indies though playing Semis..

DJ Bravo, KA Pollard, DJG Sammy, SJ Benn, JE Taylor, NO Miller is an attack that's begging to be hit for 180 on all bar a minefield

Dirk Nannes is an absolute gun. Gayle gone early, Sri Lanka must delighted with that. Nannes has been brilliant in this tournament. Bowler of the tournament so far for me.

I rather see that team as one of the best in paper.. performance wise they have always fallen short..

they have to pull together if they wana qualify for the Semis though..

as i am typing this Gayle is bowled by Dirk.. big blow here for WI..
