Akeal Hosein to Mitchell Owen, out Caught by Alzarri Joseph!! The spinner strikes second ball! A wide delivery that is pushed through, gets a bit of turn. Owen chases after it for a big slash and gets an outside edge that flies towards short third. End of a superb cameo from Mitchell Owen.

Alzarri Joseph to Hardie, no run, hard length delivery outside off. Punched towards backward point

Oh dear, Alzarri Joseph walking off the field. Seems like a muscle or hamstring injury.

Shepherd to Hardie, SIX, Shepherd to Hardie, SIX, oh wow! A fuller delivery angling onto the pads, Hardie with a checked on drive that sails all the way for six beyond deep mid-wicket. The most nonchalant six ever possible.

Australia seems to be deliberately losing the match. They are gifting wickets when the game is fully in control.

Ben Dwarshius | Player of the Match:
It was a slower wicket, so tried to hit the wicket hard and bowl some slower ones. Lot of thinking and planning goes into the games, to not let batters access certain areas. It was a challenge on these batter friendly wickets, felt like a nice, tidy challenge. Amazing to be part of this historic squad, will look back at this series for the rest of my life. I grew up watching Mitch Johnson and Starc, they are probably my role models.

Cameron Green | Player of the Series:
The wickets were better. It was a great series for many of our guys - Inglis and Tim David for instance. We'll have to wait and see, there are about five guys who can bat four. Hopefully I'm only a couple of months away. Half the team are made of all-rounders, that's the kind of squad we want to build. We got Maxi and Cooper as well if the wickets are turning. I've had great partnerships around me, we all lean on each other. Massive series win, the T20 World Cup isn't too far away so a bit of consistency will be good.

Shai Hope:
Don't think we put up a good batting display. We came up against a quality opposition in Australia but as a batting group we didn't give ourselves the best chance. We were always one step behind the eight ball, but have to commend the bowling effort. Just didn't happen for us today. In the Caribbean, chasing is always better due to the dew and wind factor. But that's not something I can control. We have some clarity in the bowling unit, we executed better. We'll put this behind us and look ahead to the Pakistan series.

Mitch Marsh:
Didn't expect 5-0 at the start of the series, but we played some great cricket throughout. (On being the first team to beat a full member 5-0) We spoke about it after the 4th game. We haven't played a lot together as a group, so this achievement is something the boys will always be proud about. We have quite a bit of flexibility, we are fluid and the guys have all come in and taken that opportunity. The way T20 is going, teams just need to keep going. You saw it today with Tim David and the way he played that innings. Looks exciting, long may it continue. We have huge amount of respect for the West Indies, we just want to focus on our execution and focus on the challenge at hand..
