It\u2019s the end of the third day’s play and Australia now have a lead of 310 after closing at 200 for 6.<\/p>\n

It was an enthralling day’s play as hundreds of fans cheered \u201clet\u2019s go Shane\u201d.<\/p>\n

On the second day West Indies, who resumed on 165 for 8, were dismissed for 218. Chanderpaul top scored with 68.<\/p>\n

The Aussies started their innings with lots of urgency but were pegged back by some good bowling from the West Indies and it took a good second wicket partnership between Ponting (57) and Cowan (55) to see them through.<\/p>\n

After Cowan was caught by Sammy from the bowling of Deonarine, the West Indies started to pile on the pressure and Ponting was caught by Chanderpaul off Roach for 57.<\/p>\n

Then it was the turn of the local Shane Shillingford who got plenty of turn and bounce and managed to get the prized scalp of skipper Michael Clarke for 25.<\/p>\n

First innings century maker Matthew Wade joined the ever reliable Hussey but found the going \u201ctough” and was hit \u201cplumb\u201d on the toe by Deonarine and was out LBW.<\/p>\n

The weather in Dominica has been very good so far. The cricket has been interesting and come the 4th promises to be a tough one.<\/p>\n

The Aussies now lead by 310 and will not want to take the chance they took a few years ago after the home team secured a record of over 400 plus for victory.<\/p>\n

Bowling for the home team so far: Roach has 2 for 40, Shillingford 2 for 69 in 29 overs and Deonarine 2 for 28 in 10 overs.<\/p>\n

Score: Australia 200 for 6.<\/p>\n

Hussey not out at 17 and Harris at 4.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s the end of the third day’s play and Australia now have a lead of 310 after closing at 200 for 6.
