I have been glued to the TV for the whole first 2 days, I've loved it, such compelling viewing.
But I literally just looked up todays score now. I can't bring myself to watch it anymore.
Looks like Head played a key knock yet again and we still can't catch. But it all feels a bit pointless no matter what happens. Sorry to be in that frame of mind, but it is what it is.

They call Beau Webster Australia’s answer to Harry Brook, not for his batting, but for his 70mph thunderbolts

Middle/lower order has saved the Aussies butts here.

Carey has played really well, doesn't get the praise he deserves he's been good with the bat this year

Minor issue I know, but why does Cummins come in to bat before Starc?
This is the main difference between the two teams. Both have been pretty bang average, but Australia have that advantage in temperament where a couple of players can bail them out even when the odds are against them. The West Indies are mental midgets in this regard.
Even if the West Indian bowling lineup is pretty good, they're nowhere close to being on par with Australia (can't see the gap closing if Shamar Joseph will not play anymore).

I know BCCI do not think this way, but ESPN+ is so much better for watching cricket in US than any other service that they should really just sell all their rights to them. I'm watching this on ESPN+ and it's so much nicer than the India/England series. Obviously customer experience is not exactly in the top five thousand things BCCI look for, so I know I'm talking into the wind here.

Ditto!
One thing I don’t like about the ESPN+ stream is the repetition of the same ads.
Minor issue tho,

Given this pitch, this batting, and this bowling attack - the target looks about 180 too many.
