Video review with Bretto and Collo: Double the fun for Smith and Labuschagne
How many first innings runs will the West Indies make?
Hello and welcome
G’day cricket lovers.
Welcome back to our live coverage of the opening Test of the summer between Australia and the West Indies.
It’s Tom Decent here, parked up in the Coogee bureau. We’ve got Mal Conn and Dan Brettig in Perth at the match. They’ll be sending through their thoughts and any news from Optus Stadium.
Day two belonged to Marnus Labuschagne and Steve Smith who posted double centuries but some late resistance from West Indies openers Kraigg Brathwaite and Tagenarine Chanderpaul saw the visitors get to stumps without losing a wicket.
It could be a long day for the Australians if they don’t get a few early breakthroughs.
The Windies resume on 0-74.
