1st Test, Day 5 | West Indies vs Australia | Kensington Oval, Bridgetown, Barbados | Jun 29, 2025, 7:00 PM IST / 2:00 PM GMT / 10:00 AM LOCAL | Australia to win | Australia’s strong historical record at Kensington Oval (4 wins, 3 draws in last 11 Tests) and dominant 2024-25 WTC form (LWWWW) give them the edge. Despite Steve Smith’s absence and Marnus Labuschagne’s exclusion, their bowling attack, led by Pat Cummins (49 wickets since 2024, avg 21.57) and Nathan Lyon, thrives on the deteriorating Day 5 pitch, which aids spin and pace. West Indies, under new captain Roston Chase, rely on Kraigg Brathwaite and Shamar Joseph (12 wickets in last 3 Tests), but their recent loss-heavy record (WLLWL) and transition phase weaken their chances. A 65% chance of showers may push for a draw, but Australia’s momentum likely secures victory if play continues. |
