After whitewashing the West Indies in the Test series, Australia are on their course to whitewash the home team in the T20I leg as well. With the help of Tim David’s carnage and power-hitting assault, they have already sealed the series. Tim David scored his first century of the T20I career to help his team chase a mammoth score of 214 with 6 wickets remaining and giving Australia a 3-0 lead in the five-match series. West Indies, while batting first, scored 213 runs with the help of opener Brandon King’s half-century (62 off 36 balls) and a blistering century knock (unbeaten 102 off 57 balls) from the skipper, Shai Hope. These two batters added 125 runs for the first wicket, showcasing their powerful hitting masterstrokes and shot selections. Hope was the standout performer with his classy batting, anchoring and hitting runs at the quicker rate at the same time.

In reply to this run-chase, Australia were under pressure after losing their opener, Glenn Maxwell and Mitchell Marsh quickly, while Josh Inglis’ wicket put Australia on the back foot. Men in Yellow needed a crucial partnership to revive their chances but at the same time, Cameron Green, who had made two consecutive half-centuries in the ongoing T20I series, got dismissed and the scoreline read 87 for 4 in the 9th over. Then came the monster, Tim David. What stood out was his batting full of assault and carnage; he spared no bowler and scored all over the stadium’s corners. He was toying with the West Indies’ bowlers, scoring an unbeaten 102 runs from just 37 deliveries, including 6 fours and 11 giant sixes. Mitchell Owen complimented his innings beautifully, remaining unbeaten with a score of 36 and played a key role in David’s century. These two batters made a record 128-run partnership for the 5th wicket and sealed the match in the 17th over. David then, in the post-match ceremony, revealed that he used Andre Russell’s bat to reach his century. He furthermore added that Warner Park is a batting paradise, small boundaries and a flat deck help batters score some quick-fire runs. He said: “I've been carrying that Dre Russ bat around for a year and it felt like it was the best time to use it.” He further added: “I was just having a great time in the middle playing for Australia. It was nice to have a period at home and get my body right. I didn't think I would get the opportunity to get a hundred for Australia so I'm stoked. The pitch was good and small boundaries, so you have to back your strengths. Warner Park is a great place to bat and it was great to have experience here in the CPL.”
