Match Review
On Wednesday, October 5, at the Carrara Oval, Queensland. Australia and West Indies played in the 1st T20I match of the West Indies tour of Australia, 2022.
In the first Twenty20 international, Australia defeated the West Indies by three wickets thanks in large part to Aaron Finch, who was dropped to bat at position four and found some confidence-boosting form. Finch scored 58 runs on Wednesday.
The home team was in trouble when their score dropped to 58-5 in the eighth over, but skipper Finch, who often starts, and Matthew Wade (39 not out) steadied the ship and added 69 runs.
The game came down to the final over after Finch was out in the 18th over, and Mitchell Starc scored the winning runs with a ball to spare. At Metricon Stadium, Australia won the toss and chose to field against the West Indies, scoring 145-9 thanks to Josh Hazlewood's 3-35.
