Australia Dominates West Indies to Claim Series

Australia secures the Test series against West Indies with a dominant 133-run victory in Grenada.

Australia has showcased its cricketing prowess by clinching the three-match Test series against the West Indies with a commanding 133-run victory in the second Test at St George`s, Grenada. The match concluded before tea on the fourth day, as the West Indies struggled on a challenging two-paced pitch, bowled out for just 143 runs in 34.3 overs. Set a daunting target of 277, Australia now holds an unassailable 2-0 lead, further extending their 20-year reign over the Frank Worrell Trophy.

Mitchell Starc and Nathan Lyon emerged as the standout bowlers for Australia, each claiming three wickets. Starc`s performance brought his Test tally to 394, placing him tantalizingly close to the 400-wicket milestone, which he could achieve in his 100th Test during the upcoming series finale in Kingston, Jamaica. West Indies captain Roston Chase top-scored for his side with 34, while Shamar Joseph contributed a brisk 24 late in the innings. Earlier, Joseph took two of the final three Australian wickets to finish with impressive figures of 4 for 66.

The series now heads to its final Test, a day/night fixture set to begin next Saturday in Kingston, where Australia will aim for a clean sweep.
