Warner-Watson Blast Aussies Beat Windies by 8-wickets

Sydney: Australia end their summer unbeaten with a big big win! West Indies were just humiliated, the target of 139 was chased down by Australia in a mere 11.4 overs with the loss of just two wickets.

It was a ruthless batting display from Warner who whacked 67 off just 29 balls, going 7 times over the ropes. Watson took over after his departure and smashed an unbeaten 62 off just 33 deliveries including 4 four and 4 sixes, to take his side home comfortably.

West Indies offered some fight in the Tests, but wilted after that to end the tour on a disappointing note.

Earlier, West Indies have been restricted to 138/7 in their 20 overs, courtesy some tidy bowling and superb out-fielding. Dowlin (31) and Deonarine (36*) were the only ones to make a valiant contributions while Sammy (26* off 11) played a cameo towards the end.

For Australia, both the debutants, Christian and Harris were quite impressive with the ball, striking twice. Steven Smith was yet again awesome in the fielder, took a couple good catches and was involved in a run out too.
