West Indies won the toss and decided to bowl against Australia
“I don’t think it [the pitch] is going to change too much,” captain Shai Hope said. “It has some grass on it so hopefully we can exploit that. We need to learn from the mistakes that we made in the first game and make amends.”
Steven Smith said he would likely have bowled first as well. “It’s pretty dry and a few patches. Hopefully we can post a score.”
