Injured tempo bowler Shamar Joseph produced a surprising spell because the West Indies pulled off a outstanding eight-run win over Australia within the second Test on the Gabba in Brisbane on Sunday. Joseph, who wanted scans after retiring damage on Saturday night time when he was hit on the toe by a Mitchell Starc yorker, took 7-68 on Sunday because the West Indies bowled Australia out for 207, giving the West Indies their first win in Australia since 1997. Australia started the fourth day’s play at 60-2, chasing 216 for victory and with Steve Smith and Cameron Green on the crease, they had been overwhelming favourites.

Opening bowlers Kemar Roach and Alzarri Joseph weren’t notably threatening, so 45 minutes in captain Kraigg Brathwaite threw the ball to Joseph, with virtually rapid outcomes.

Although proving costly, Joseph’s additional tempo prompted bother for all of the batters and the extra wickets he took, the extra assured the West Indies grew to become.

It’s throughout!!!

He bowled Green and Travis Head with consecutive balls, them dismissed Mitchell Marsh, Mitchell Starc, Alex Carey and Pat Cummins in an prolonged first session.

He capped off a outstanding efficiency when he clear bowled Josh Hazlewood to finish the match.

“I was just thinking of the basics, get it at the top of off,” Joseph stated.

“I was just trying to find my rhythm and that was important for me.”

Through all of the carnage, Smith stood agency for the Australians, answering his critics with an excellent innings of 91, but it surely was in useless because the underdogs surprised the world Test champions.
