Australia demolished West Indies inside three days to wrap up an innings and 65-run win at the Gabba in Brisbane. West Indies lost as many as 15 wickets on the third day! There was a bit of consolation for the tourists with debutant Adrian Barath standing tall among the ruins with a century on debut. The Trinidadian announced his arrival in the big league with 104 from just 138 balls (with 19 fours) in a team total of 187!
Windies were bowled out in their first innings for 228 which lasted for only 63 overs. Ricky Ponting enforced the follow on and the Windies were again bowled out cheaply with their second innings lasting hardly two sessions. Ben Hilfenhaus was named as the Man of the Match for taking a total of five wickets.
