Australia vs West Indies 2nd Test Day 1: Carey, Webster lift Aussies To 286 After Top-Order Collapse
Australia witnessed a big batting collapse on the opening day of the 2nd Test against West Indies as they were bundled out for just 286 runs in the first innings in Grenada. Reduced to 110/5 soon after lunch, the visitors were in deep trouble before Alex Carey (63) and Beau Webster (60) stitched together a 112-run partnership to steady their ship. Alzarri Joseph was the pick of the West Indies bowlers, who bagged 4 wickets, conceding only 61 runs and rattling the Aussies' batting line-up. After Australia’s innings ended in 67 overs, bad light forced early stumps before the West Indies could begin their reply.
