West Indies prevail over Australia to tie T20 series
Great Start
Edwards and Samuels shared six wickets, finishing with identical figures of 3-23, to restrict the tourists to 146-9 to leave the two-match series squared at 1-1.
“Great start from the West Indies, I think we pulled it back to about par, 160, and I thought we were on course to knock it off,” Australia captain George Bailey said.
“They put pressure on us, the wicket of David Warner was huge, run-outs change matches. The crowd were great and hopefully we provided some good entertainment.”
The teams also drew their five-match one-day international series, setting the stage for an intriguing test series, starting in Bridgetown next week.
“The work we’ve been doing in the camp and throughout the series has been paying off and I want to ask the boys to keep doing that,” said West Indies skipper Darren Sammy.
“We want to keep doing well in the tests and hopefully continue the good results.”
