West Indies vs Australia, 3rd T20I - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

West Indies were outgunned and outclassed in their own power-hitting game by Tim David tonight. He wasn't just brutal, he was clever as well and he took down the bowlers at will. A short turnaround and the players will be back for the 4th match tomorrow. The series might've been lost, but West Indies will look to improve in the last two games. For Australia, it's all about playing good cricket, having fun and winning well. Do join us for the coverage tomorrow. For now, cheers and bye..

Mitchell Marsh | Australia Captain - Every series win is special with this young group, guys getting games and stoked to be 3-0 up (in the series). We're giving (guys) opportunities in different positions, I thought we executed our skills well with the ball in the final few overs and no words to say about Tim's knock tonight. We want the guys to enjoy playing cricket for Australia, it should be fun, we just want to play some good cricket.

Shai Hope | West Indies Captain - I don't think we had enough runs on the board. The dimension of the ground, the short boundaries - I think with the short boundaries, we needed more than just 214. Then we didn't get wickets consistently. We've powerful strikers of the ball, but credit to the Australians, they were excellent with the ball in the death overs. We need to correct a few things, we saw how Tim cleared the straight boundaries - we've to correct a few things and need to find solutions in the next couple of games. We've the players to do it, we've got some powerful strikers and we back them to deliver

Tim David | Player of the Match - Absolutely not (when asked if he should be batting higher up in the batting order), just had a great time in the middle wanting to make the most of every opportunity with the bat. Was really nice to spend time at home, I had picked up a niggle, didn't think too much, didn't think I would score a 100 for Australia. The pitch was good and the boundaries were short, I just backed myself to play my shots. You always use your experience of playing here and it came good for me. I've worked a lot on my power-hitting, but I'm looking to make the most of my range as a stroke-maker.

22:24 Local Time, 02:24 GMT, 07:54 IST: Tim David plays as a finisher across the franchise circuit, but he showed that he could be there for the long haul as well. Came inside the batting powerplay with Australia wobbling a bit at 61 for 3, but it was one-way traffic from there onwards. He didn't let any bowler settle, but Gudakesh Motie was reserved for the worst treatment - four consecutive sixes in a 28-run 10th over as David completed a 16-ball fifty, he wasn't done for the night as he continued the carnage, the ball simply kept flying around Warner Park. Agreed, the boundaries were short, but that was some insane hitting by the powerful striker. He did get a life on 90, but that wouldn't have altered the script. A 37-ball hundred, a spate of records broken and Australia have cruised to a 3-0 series lead, handing them the T20I trophy as well. West Indies would've sensed a chance at the half-way mark, but they were left to repent the slow down in their last 5 overs with the bat. What looked like 230+ ended up with only 214, but don't think any score was safe from David's reach today.
