West Indies feel the pressure from Australia
It was not to be though as the lower order showed plenty of application with Matthew Wade making 28 before he went caught by Darren Bravo off Fidel Edwards.
Ben Hilfenhaus contributed a useful 24 before he was bowed by Roach but the key innings came from Ryan Harris who made his best test score by reaching 68 not out, his maiden Test half-century.
With number 11 Nathan Lyon, whose previous best test score was 14, making an unbeaten 40 at the other end, the last pair put on 77 runs and pushed Australia into a position where Clarke was able to make a declaration.
The Australian skipper clearly felt that time rather than more runs was the priority and his move appeared to catch a tired and demoralized West Indies team by surprise.
West Indies lost three wickets for just four runs in a brief session before tea as Hilfenhaus bowled Adrian Barath (2) and had Kraigg Brathwaite (0) caught behind in the third over.
Hilfenhaus then trapped Kirk Edwards (1) leg before and West Indies went in for tea with three men down.
Yet again, the pressure was on Shivnarine Chanderpaul, a century maker in the first innings, to deliver a big innings but this time he went cheaply – caught by Wade moving to his left off Harris.
