West Indies speedster Shamar Joseph bowled through pain to rip through a shellshocked Australia on Sunday and help deliver an extraordinary eight-run upset for his inexperienced side on day four of the second test in Brisbane.<\/p>\n

Forced to retire hurt from a toe-crushing Mitchell Starc yorker the previous evening, Joseph bounced back to claim six wickets in a session and 7-68 overall to lift West Indies to their first test win Down Under since 1997, as Australia were bowled out for 207 in pursuit of 216.<\/p>\n

Australia\u2019s new opener Steve Smith (91 not out) farmed the strike to protect Josh Hazlewood (0), but it was to no avail as Joseph sent the tailender\u2019s off-stump flying to register the win which sent the tourists running in celebration at the Gabba.<\/p>\n

Before the West Indies were dismissed for 193 in their second dig, Australia skipper Pat Cummins had courageously declared at 289-9 with his side still behind the visitors\u2019 first innings total of 311.<\/p>\n

Australia prevailed by 10 wickets in the first test in Adelaide, as the series ends<\/a> 1-1.<\/p>\n

Joseph, who had been sent to the hospital for scans, recovered sufficiently by day four to bowl over Cameron Green (42) and Travis Head, who made a king pair, in consecutive deliveries to keep alive West Indies\u2019 hopes.<\/p>\n

Mitchell Marsh (10) fell next, juggled between the slipsmen, and Alex Carey (2) soon had his stumps rattled as the 24-year-old\u2019s fiery afternoon rampage continued.<\/p>\n

Resuming from 33 overnight<\/a>, Smith continued to accumulate while Starc opted for aggression, blasting a 14-ball 21 before presenting debutant Kevin Sinclair at backward point his third catch for the game.<\/p>\n

Cummins, caught behind, added two before becoming Joseph\u2019s sixth victim in a lionhearted 11-over spell which reduced the hosts to 187-8 at the major break.<\/p>\n

Alzarri Joseph (2-62) captured Nathan Lyon\u2019s (9) bottom-edge one ball after spilling a caught-and-bowled chance to have Australia nine down and trailing by 21, forcing Smith to up the ante by scooping a six over fine leg but in the end the hosts, sensationally, fell just short.<\/p>\n

The final margin embodies an enthralling contest in which both sides experienced periods of ascendancy, however, the West Indies, who fielded four debutantes<\/a> in the series, had to overcome their share of bad luck.<\/p>\n

With Australia reeling at 72-5 in their first innings, Shamar Joseph fired a full ball through Carey, on eight of an eventual 65, only to have the heavier light-up bails stay within the grooves.<\/p>\n

Further misfortune befell Joseph, who lit up the first test with a debut five-wicket haul and handy runs from number 11, when his Starc-induced injury prevented him from extending the lead, and later bowling, at the end of day three.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
