Top order fires CA XI into innings lead

Cricket Australia XI's top order all chipped in with handy knocks, helping the team secure the lead against West Indians on the second day of the tour match in Brisbane.

West Indians, who began the day precariously placed at 154 for 6, were led by Carlos Brathwaite's patient 47, but received little by way of support from the other players, as the team eventually folded for 243. Medium-pacer Simon Milenko was the pick of the hosts' bowlers, collecting 5 for 76, while James Bazley and Cameron Boyce shared two scalps apiece.
