GROS ISLET (ST Lucia): West Indies and Australia commence their five-match Twenty20 International series on Friday under lights at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in St Lucia with both teams in pursuit of a winning momentum as the countdown to the World T20 continues.
Title-holders for the global tournament set for October-November in the United Arab Emirates, the Caribbean side started a home run of 15 Twenty20 Internationals with a 3-2 loss to South Africa in Grenada.
That highlighted their continuing challenges of coping with high-quality spin bowling while conceding a high proportion of scoreless deliveries in their five innings.
