Commentary :
0.0 : Hello and welcome to the second ODI between West Indies and Australia. The hosts capitulated with the bat and failed to get even close to Australia's target. Pollard and co. Will look to put on a much improved showing with the bat this time around. It was a very good performance from the visitors and they will be eyeing to repeat it and avenge for the T20I series loss by taking an unassailable lead tonight. Starc finding his mojo back would be the biggest boost for Australia. Can the hosts fight
TOSS - The coin goes up and lands in the favour of Australia. They opt to bat first.
Australia (PLAYING XI) - Josh Philippe, Ben McDermott, Mitchell Marsh, Moises Henriques, Alex Carey (WK/C), Ashton Turner, Matthew Wade, Mitchell Starc, Riley Meredith (IN PLACE OF WES AGAR), Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood.
West Indies (PLAYING XI) - Evin Lewis, Shai Hope (WK) (IN PLACE OF SHIMRON HETMYER) , Darren Bravo, Jason Mohammed, Nicholas Pooran, Kieron Pollard (C), Jason Holder, Hayden Walsh, Sheldon Cottrell, Alzarri Joseph, Akeal Hosein.
West Indies skipper, Kieron Pollard says that they just need to fix what went wrong. Pollard admits their batting was the problem and hopes to correct it and improve the situation. Pollard says today is one of the biggest game and says they have had a lot of discussions and hopes to do the business today. Pollard informs Hetmyer misses out and Hope comes back from injury. 
Australia skipper, Alex Carey says they will elect to bat first, as the pitch looks similar to the first game. Also says, they are happy to start the ODI series with a victory and would look to continue with the same momentum. Ends by saying there is one change, Riley Meredith comes in place of Wes Agar.
PITCH REPORT - Darren Ganga is the pitch master for the day. Ganga says it is a glorious afternoon and tells there is a 30 percent chance of rain. Ganga says the straighter boundary is bigger. Ganga says that the wicket got slower. Darren Ganga says this pitch is light brown in color and says it is very dry. Tells the grass covering is patchy and batting will be tougher. He feels the bowlers will take advantage.
Not the news we would have liked to start the day. The start of the game will be delayed by a little due to some operational issues. 
UPDATE 1510 local (1910 GMT) - The official statement from Cricket West Indies ''The second  ODI between West Indies and Australia has been postponed due a positive Covid-19 test result from a non-playing member of the West Indies team. This decision was taken after the toss at Kensington Oval once the result was known due to the Covid-19 protocols. All members of both teams and match officials will be retested today. A decision on when the match will replayed will be made at a later date once
UPDATE 1448 Local (1848 GMT) - PLAY POSTPONED! This is something no one expected! It has come out of the blue if we are being honest! In these uncertain times, there has been a positive Covid-19 Test in the bubble and the game has been POSTPONED! 
Very unfortunate and surprising to say the least! The toss was done and play was about to start but a last-minute positive Covid-19 Test has seen the game to be suspended and thrown the remainder of the series into jeoprady. This shows how uncertain times are currently and we hope wherever you are watching, you are taking the right precautions and care to fight this battle against Covid-19. Let's hope everyone is safe and the person affected is not too adversely affected as that is the priority.
MATCH TO RESUME! Of course, not now. But at the time the third ODI was originally scheduled. So it was on Saturday, 24th July, 2021, at 2.30 pm local (1830 GMT). The date and time are the same but this will now be considered as the second ODI. The boards have agreed to play another game on Monday, 26th July, at 2.30 pm local (1830 GMT). Australia of course, won't have any problems but West Indies might, because they are slotted to play Pakistan the very next day!
What can we say now? STUMPS ON DAY 1! Ha ha ha. Join us back at 2.30 pm local then (1830 GMT)! We should have a fair idea about what is the final call about the toss by then. The good thing is that after that one positive case, everyone else in both squads has returned negative Covid tests. So the match should happen for sure. Fingers crossed.
However, Australia have problems. As per the rule, once the toss has happened, you are supposed to play with the same lineups which were announced at that time. West Indies are ready to abide by the rules but Australia want a fresh toss, so that they can have a new lineup, because the one announced was as per the conditions and the pitch on Thursday. So they have raised the matter to the ICC and we all await what will be the final decision. Of course, rules are rules but food for thought for th
Take 2! And first things first. There won't be any start from scratch in the second ODI. The match will RESUME from the point we left it two days back due to unfortunate circumstances. So, as it has been flashing on the scorecard all day, Australia will bat first, and both teams will continue with the already announced XIs. For your convenience, so that you don't have to scroll all the way down, our next updates will carry the information regarding the Playing XIs of Australia and West Indies. B
Australia (Playing XI) - Josh Philippe, Ben McDermott, Mitchell Marsh, Moises Henriques, Alex Carey (WK/C), Ashton Turner, Matthew Wade, Mitchell Starc, Riley Meredith (In for Wes Agar), Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood. 
West Indies (Playing XI) - Evin Lewis, Shai Hope (WK) (In for Shimron Hetmyer), Darren Bravo, Jason Mohammed, Nicholas Pooran, Kieron Pollard (C), Jason Holder, Hayden Walsh, Sheldon Cottrell, Alzarri Joseph, Akeal Hosein.
Moving on, as you must be already aware that all the RT-PCR tests conducted came negative. It's a piece of very good and relieving news but at the same time, a gentle reminder to all of us that we're not yet free from the clutches of Covid-19 and all the necessary precautions have to be taken.
Right! Let's focus on the game at hand. The series is still wide open with Australia having the upper hand. For West Indies, it's not just about winning the next two matches but also plucking 20 CWC points that are up for grabs. If they do that, the hosts will shoot up from 9th and go level with Australia on the points table. Plenty riding on this and the next game.
JUST IN - Josh Hazlewood is not feeling well and Wes Agar has been allowed to take his place in the XI.
Pitch report - No water has been added to the surface. There are patches of green grass on the deck along with dry grass. There will be variable bounce and this pitch is going to be very tough for batting.
It's time to get going! The players are on the ground. Josh Philippe and Ben McDermott are the Aussie openers. Sheldon Cottrell will bowl with the first new ball. The players take a knee first up and now we are ready to play. Here we go...

1.2 : Jason Holder to Josh Philippe, Back of a length ball on top of off, Josh gets behind the line and defends it back from the crease.
1.3 : Jason Holder to Josh Philippe, First runs off the bat! Slightly short in length and on off, Philippe gets across and works it in front of square leg for a couple of runs.
2.5 : Called a dead ball. Sheldon Cottrell might have been looking for a slower one but it slipped out of his hands as he was about to deliver. Reload.

3.1 : Jason Holder to Josh Philippe, Good length ball on middle, Philippe gets forward and across before pushing it with the angle of the bowler to mid-wicket.
3.5 : Jason Holder to Josh Philippe, FOUR! Uppish but safe! Fuller in length and on middle, Josh presents the full face of the bat and drives it aerially back past the bowler and his partner. Holder sticks his right hand out but it's too far from him. The ball races down the ground, Alzarri Joseph gives it the chase, tries to pull it back in and in the process collides with the advertising board. No harm done though. The onfield umpire gets it checked upstairs and the third umpire finds that Alza

It races away and then starts to slow down as it approaches the fence. Akeal Hosein chases and dives near the fence to pull it back. The onfield umpire gets it checked upstairs and finds that Akeal's elbow has touched the rope when he is in contact with the ball. A boundary is given.
8.3 : Alzarri Joseph to Alex Carey, That's a lovely shot and a good effort in the field by Cottrell. Fuller in length and on middle, Carey flicks it through the gap at mid-wicket.

10.3 : Akeal Hosein to Alex Carey, Full and straight, swept away to square leg.
10.5 : Ashton Turner is the new batsman. He played very well for his 49 in the first ODI and had a century stand with Carey. Can he do something similar with Moises Henriques?
11.2 : Hayden Walsh to Moises Henriques, Tossed up on middle, Henriques gets behind the line of the ball to block it.

11.6 : Hayden Walsh to Ashton Turner, Flighted delivery on the stumps, watchfully blocked out.

13.4 : Shout for a stumping! The square leg umpire takes it upstairs. The third umpire first checks for the stumping but there is some part of Wade's boot planted in. He further goes on to check for caught behind. There is nothing on the Ultra Edge. Wade is safe.
13.5 : Hayden Walsh to Matthew Wade, WADE IS SAFE! Tossed up ball landing full around off and turning towards the leg stump, Wade goes down and across to play the sweep shot but misses. The keeper is quick to take the bails off and appeals. It has been referred upstairs and the replays find that Wade has some part of his boot inside the crease. The third umpire also checks for caught behind but there is a flat line on the Ultra Edge.
13.6 : Hayden Walsh to Matthew Wade, Shorter delivery, played off the back foot towards mid-wicket.
0.0 : Drinks break! 47 for 6 and Australia are staring down the barrel. It has been some exceptional bowling from West Indies, especially Akeal Hosein. Once again Australia have been exposed by a spinner and they will require a miracle from here to reach a competitive score.

16.5 : Review for LBW by Australia. Mitchell Starc has been given OUT by the onfield umpire but he has reviewed it straightaway. No bat involved. Ball Tracking shows that the impact is outside off and hence the decision is overturned. Big relief for the Aussies and Starc lives to fight on.
16.6 : Bowling change. Alzarri Joseph comes back into the attack. He has figures of, 1/12 in 3 overs so far.
17.3 : Alzarri Joseph to Mitchell Starc, Shortish and on middle, Starc tries to defend but it takes the inner half and goes in front of square leg. They cross.

23.6 : Sheldon Cottrell to Matthew Wade, WIDE! Short bouncer, a bit too short, Wade ducks down and a wide is called.
Hayden Walsh to Mitchell Starc, An absolute peach to end the over. This one is flighted around off and Starc looks to block it but the wrong one turns away and beats the outside edge of Starc's bat.

26.2 : Hayden Walsh to Matthew Wade, Another googly, full and on middle, Wade plays late and guides it to the left of short third man for one.
26.3 : Who will come in next? It's Adam Zampa.
Review for LBW. The West Indies players thought long and hard about it but finally, Pollard decides to take the review as breaking this partnership is crucial. There is certainly no bat involved as ULTRA EDGE shows. BALL TRACKING shows three reds and the review is successful! Starc was riding his luck a bit and is finally undone by Hayden Walsh. Joel Wilson is asked to change his decision to OUT!

16.2 : Akeal Hosein to Mitchell Starc, Howzzat? The umpire is not interested. Akeal puts a lot of revs on the ball, Starc tries to defend but it beats the inside edge and lobs off the pads of the keeper. Holder catches it reacting from first slip. They appeal but nothing from the umpire. The square leg umpire has called it a no ball, as West Indies had one extra fielder outside the ring.

West Indies had a dream start as their bowlers cleaned up the Australian top order in a jiffy and they weren’t finished. After Powerplay 1, Akeal Hosein emerged on the scene who just spun the ball like he never has and got three wickets with his first ten deliveries. He bowled in tandem with Hayden Walsh. Both of them continued to attack but Wade and Starc were up to the task. Finally, when Hayden Walsh came back on he broke the partnership but Zampa stayed with Wade. West Indies did manage
A decent comeback by Australia after a forgetful start. They had a disastrous beginning with their top three getting sent back to the pavilion when the score was just 26. They were again rocked after Powerplay 1 by Akeal Hosein who ripped through their middle order and picked up 3 wickets, leaving Australia reeling at 45 for 6 within 13 overs. Then came Australia’s fightback with Wade and Starc adding 51 runs for the 7th wicket. Starc fell to spin as well, but Zampa came in and did a fine j
Akeal Hosein is up for a quick chat! The spinner says that he is pleased with his performance after not having a good T20I series. Shares that the conditions are a bit spin-friendly but still, you have to pitch the ball in the right area. Feels that partnerships will be the key as small totals can be difficult. Wants his team to take it as deep as possible.
So then, West Indies need 188 to win and though it might seem like a sub-par total by Australia, you never know what will happen. West Indies were shot out for only 123 in the first ODI so they will have to better their last performance to scale down this target. Australia will look for a fast start with the ball. Let’s see if the chase is straightforward or there will be some tumbles. We will find out after a short break.
