Australia vs West Indies, 2nd Test - Live Cricket Score, Commentary
Series: West Indies tour of Australia, 2022 Venue: Adelaide Oval, Adelaide Date & Time: Dec 08-Dec 11, 02:30 PM LOCAL
Usman Khawaja 62(129)
41.1
D Thomas to Khawaja, out Lbw!! Maiden wicket on Test debut for Devon Thomas. He is delighted and gets a high five from Jason Holder. Bowled this from round the wicket at I0$ and defeated Khawaja on the inside edge. The batter was perhaps not expecting the ball to come in as much as it did, Khawaja was a fraction late to react and got hit on the front pad before the deflection clonked the back pad. Rod Tucker thought briefly but had his finger up with an air of confidence. The review was quick from Australia and it did prove to be a reasonable one. Khawaja lbw b D Thomas 62(129) [4s-9]
