Scorecard - 1st Test, Australia vs West Indies at Bellerive Oval, Hobart, Australia (09 Dec 2015)

113.2 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, floated up well outside off, Voges reaches out and drives it hard through the cover region, races away to the fence in a jiffy

111.3 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, Voges nails the sweep this time. Comes across and sends this fullish delivery through to the deep mid-wicket fence, there were two fielder in the deep but none of them stood any chance of stopping that

108.1 - Roach to Voges, FOUR, angling in on middle stump line, Voges plays a whippy flick and gets it backward of square leg, there was a fielder in the deep but he had no chance of stopping that. This is now the highest 4th wicket partnership in Tests, ever! Records keep tumbling for these two

107.5 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, Voges is just one away from 250 now. Tossed up outside off, Voges takes a step forward and loft-drives it over extra cover, runs away

105.4 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, take that! Voges is in a hurry and frankly speaking, he is doing a good job at scoring these runs quickly. Comes down the track to get to the pitch of the ball and lofts it inside-out over extra cover, no need to run for those

105.3 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, and again! This time the fielder at deep mid-wicket was moved further to his left in the deep and Voges this time sweeps it to his right, he once again had no chance of cutting it off

105.2 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, that's a great shot. Floated up well outside off, Voges kneels down, reaches out for it and sweeps it in front of square on the on-side, the fielder at deep mid-wicket had no chance of stopping that

103.3 - Warrican to S Marsh, FOUR, once again Warrican drops it short and pays the price for it. Marsh rocks back and pulls it over mid-wicket, no need to run for those

102.5 - Roach to Voges, FOUR, the Aussies are definitely aiming for a declaration. Voges has gone up at least two gears in a bid to score quick runs. This was pitched up well outside off, Voges leans forward and drills the drive to the right of mid-off, who dives across but the ball was far away from his reach. Crashes into the fence in no time

102.4 - Roach to Voges, FOUR, edged and four! This was bowled slightly wide outside off, Voges throws the kitchen sink at that, gets a thick outside edge that flies right over the gap between the slip and the keeper, races away

102.3 - Roach to Voges, FOUR, just short of a good length and just outside off, Voges hangs back and dabs it very late, gets it to the left of the man at backward point, Bishoo gives chase but the ball beats him to the fence. 500 up for Australia

101.2 - Holder to Voges, FOUR, where did that come from? Voges shimmies down the wicket while making some room, he thumps the drive to the right of mid-off. He converted that into a fuller length by coming down. Now, he has the highest indiviual score on this ground, going past Ponting's 209

98.2 - Jerome Taylor to S Marsh, FOUR, too full and outside off, almost on a yorker length, Marsh squeezes it off the toe-end behind point, the pace of Taylor takes it to the fence in a hurry

96.5 - Jerome Taylor to Voges, FOUR, top shot! Fuller and on the stumps, it was on a driveable length and Voges didn't miss out, he presents the full face of the bat and drives it past Marsh. The timing on that on-drive was excellent and he hit it straight enough to beat the mid-on fielder

94.4 - Jerome Taylor to Voges, FOUR, Taylor becomes a bit too greedy there. Tries to draw Voges into another false shot, dishes out a half volley outside off, Voges gets a good stride forward and creams it through cover, the new ball sped away to the fence

91.5 - Holder to S Marsh, FOUR, "catch" shouted someone. But it flew out of the bat. Short and width on offer, Marsh goes back and cuts it fiercely in the air close to gully, the fielder flings to his left and didn't even get a finger on it. It was hit very hard and raced away to the fence

90.1 - Jerome Taylor to Voges, FOUR, that travelled quickly. Half volley on the pads, Voges says thank you very much and puts it away, flicks it square of the wicket and picks up the first boundary of the day

80.0 - Blackwood to S Marsh, FOUR, cracking shot! It was a long hop from Blackwood, sat up nicely for Marsh, who rocked back and smashed it in front of square on the off-side, no chance for the sweeper to get around and stop it

78.1 - Roach to S Marsh, byes, FOUR, urgh, it's all falling apart. Ramdin has fluffed a regulation take. Length ball outside off, left alone. Comes to Ramdin at waist height and he only manages fingertips. Ian Chappell informs that this is the 50th boundary of the day

74.4 - Roach to S Marsh, FOUR, now it's a short ball. The width wasn't quite there. But Marsh does ever so well. Waits for the ball to come to him and plays a back-cut from behind his body to send it skimming fine past gully

74.3 - Roach to S Marsh, FOUR, "that's a gentle delivery" exclaims Mark Nicholas almost in a pitiful tone. Full and on the pads, Marsh is having a net in the middle. Rolls his wrists well and flicks it through mid-wicket

72.3 - Roach to S Marsh, FOUR, he's done it, he's done it. Marsh has a hundred. And look at him go. Pure ecstasy. And honestly, Roach dished it on a platter. Short of length delivery without much purpose. Only rises as high as the midriff and the line was too straight. Marsh swivels and pulls it away through the vacant square leg region. Bisects the deep fielders and proceeds to remove his helmet. Stylish. Elegant. Shaun Marsh

70.4 - Jerome Taylor to S Marsh, FOUR, hohoho! That's a rasping extra-cover drive. Wasn't all that bad a delivery. Just a fraction full and outside off. Marsh doesn't get a massive stride forward. Leans into the ball and threads it wide of mid-off. Almost on the walk playing it. Just another hit away from his ton now

70.3 - Jerome Taylor to S Marsh, FOUR, I've lost count of the half-vollies on offer today. Taylor dishes another one outside off, Marsh laces the drive through the cover region piercing the ring, and moves into the 90s

58.2 - Kraigg Brathwaite to S Marsh, FOUR, the partnership keeps growing! This was fractionally short and just outside off, Marsh stays back and whips it wide of mid-wicket, beats the man getting across from the deep

58.0 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, Voges is toying with Warrican here, this was looped well outside off, he gets down onto his knees and sweeps it powerfully - all along the carpet and in front of mid-wicket, beats the man in the deep for another boundary

57.4 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, sweep from Voges and he hits the gap as well, this was tossed up invitingly outside off, Voges bends down low, rolls his wrists around it and gets it in front of square on the on-side, beats the man getting across from deep square leg

56.2 - Kraigg Brathwaite to Voges, FOUR, nicely done by Voges, gets a big stride down the pitch, rolls his wrists and sweeps it powerfully past square leg, raises his 17th boundary

56.0 - Warrican to S Marsh, FOUR, cracking shot, Marsh comes down the track, plays with a slightly open face and finds the gap past extra cover, the timing is sweet and the ball races away to the fence in a hurry

49.3 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, 98 now. Oh this is interesting. Will he go for it? Tossed up just outside off, Voges sits on his back knee and just helps the sweep behind square. No one back there. He never looked to hit that hard

45.0 - Roach to S Marsh, FOUR, this is a feast. Have your share. It's just ridiculous stuff. You don't bowl full tosses in Test cricket. You just don't. And to make matters worse there was a fair amount of width as well. Marsh moves across on the front foot and lashes the drive through the covers. There was a man placed halfway inside the boundary. Beat him as well

43.5 - Jerome Taylor to S Marsh, FOUR, oh dear, Taylor is spraying it around like a garden hose. Now strays on Marsh's pads. That is like bread and butter for him. Flicks it superbly through mid-wicket

43.3 - Jerome Taylor to Voges, FOUR, Voges is motoring along. Going at better than a run-a-ball. This namby pamby bowling from the West Indies is surely helping. Again too full. And drifting on middle and leg. Voges leans forward and just turns his wrists enough on the ball to drive it wide of mid-on. Generated enough power

42.5 - S Gabriel to S Marsh, FOUR, now that's gorgeous. Gabriel errs on the fuller side and Marsh latches onto it. Leans forward and laces the drive through extra-cover. No one bothered to move

39.5 - Jerome Taylor to Voges, FOUR, another absolute beauty of a straight drive. He is looking good while playing in the V. Pitched right up, just leans into the ball and punches it. To the left of mid-on on this occasion

39.3 - Jerome Taylor to Voges, FOUR, oh sumptuous! A half-volley all right, but Voges has timed the guts out of it. Plonks half-a-stride forward and punches it to the right of mid-on. Speeds away

38.5 - S Gabriel to Voges, FOUR, short and chops it into the ground, that beat a leaping gully fielder, this one was chopped hard and it bounced enough to elude the fielder there, tells a thing or two about how quick this outfield is

37.1 - Jerome Taylor to Voges, FOUR, bad delivery, not a great shot but that will fetch him runs, width on offer, Voges was glued in the crease as he tried to cut it, gets a thick bottom edge and it races past a diving second slip into the third man fence

36.3 - S Gabriel to Voges, no ball, FOUR, order of the day continues, Gabriel oversteps and delivers a half volley on off, Voges leans into the drive and essays the drive through extra cover, brings up his 4th Test fifty

36.1 - S Gabriel to Voges, FOUR, short again and Voges says thank you as he rocks back, takes his time and clatters the cut past cover point, fielder runs only to collect it once it has crossed the fence

35.2 - Jerome Taylor to Voges, FOUR, that is a good looking shot from Voges, gets some width, camps back and late cuts it to get it past backward point with ease, the ball crashes into the ad cushions

34.3 - S Gabriel to Voges, FOUR, fuller length on the off, presents the full face of the bat and punches it to the right of the bowler, mid-on gives a chase but the ball will win the race

34.1 - S Gabriel to Voges, FOUR, slipped down on his legs, moves across and glances it fine to the left of the keeper, no one would bother chasing that. Bad start for Gabriel

30.0 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, that will be the fourth boundary of the over, uses his feet once again to get to the pitch of the delivery and drives it wide of mid-on, the ball races to the fence

29.4 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, short and that will be punished, Voges camps back and pulls it in front of square for the third boundary of the over

29.3 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, flighted delivery and latches onto that one, steps down and lofts it over the bowler's head, there is no stopping that one

29.1 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, tossed up and on the stumps, steps down and gets it from the inside part of the bat away from the fielder at mid-wicket, the quick outfield means that the ball beats the fielder to the fence

28.3 - Holder to S Marsh, FOUR, fuller length and made full use of that, leaned into the drive and presented the full face of the bat to thread the gap at cover

22.3 - Holder to Warner, FOUR, lovely shot, overpitched and just outside off, Warner leans forward, opens the face of the bat at the last moment and drives it past extra cover, the timing is sweet and the ball rolls away to the ropes

19.4 - Warrican to Voges, FOUR, that's a gift first up for Voges, full toss on his pads, whipped away in front of square on the on-side, beats the diving fielder in the deep for a boundary

13.2 - Warrican to Warner, FOUR, nicely played, another very full delivery and wide outside off, Warner gets a good stride forward and drills it past extra cover for a boundary, his 10th of the innings

12.5 - S Gabriel to Smith, FOUR, cracking shot, overpitched and well outside off, a long half-volley for Smith, he leans forward, presents the full face of the bat and creams it through extra cover for a boundary

10.5 - S Gabriel to Burns, FOUR, that is unlucky for Gabriel. Hands on hips time for him. It was shortish around off, Burns brings his bat down at an angle, the thickish outside edge goes to the right of gully and to the fence

10.0 - Holder to Warner, FOUR, short and width on offer, Warner nonchalantly puts it away. He stays leg-side of the ball and opens up the off-side, slaps it through extra cover, though he didn't middle it the ball had enough fuel to reach the fence

9.4 - Holder to Warner, FOUR, "there is no chasing that", says Mark Nicholas on air. He is absolutely right. Wide half volley and Warner creams it through the extra cover region, came right off the meat and no one moved. Even Warner held his pose after playing that

8.2 - S Gabriel to Burns, FOUR, width on offer and Burns hits it onto the ground, it was fullish and outside off, Burns gets a good stride forward, opens the bat face and square drives it over backward point. The ball hit the turf and bounced over the fielder

8.0 - Roach to Warner, FOUR, third boundary and Roach's struggle continues. Back of a length and outside off, Warner stays leg-side of the ball and slaps it wide of mid-off, Taylor puts in a valiant dive in vain

7.5 - Roach to Warner, FOUR, Roach overcompensates. Bangs it short and on the hips, doesn't rise much, Warner swivels and pulls it behind square leg, no chance for the fine leg fielder to stop that

7.4 - Roach to Warner, FOUR, that's four more. Fifty up for Australia. Not all that full, but with the kind of form Warner has been in it was driveable, he gets it past mid-off and the ball races away

7.0 - Jerome Taylor to Burns, FOUR, smashed! Taylor drops it short and is punished. He didn't have the pace to trouble Burns, who took it from just outside off and pulled it in front of square on the leg-side, not a muscled moved as the ball crashed into the boundary hoardings

4.4 - Jerome Taylor to Warner, FOUR, the angle didn't work on that occasion. Drifted onto the pads, Warner leans forward and clips it through the mid-wicket, the fielder tries to hunt it down but the timing was just too good

4.2 - Jerome Taylor to Warner, FOUR, the runs continue to flow. Overpitched and width on offer, Warner is not going to miss out on those, crashes it past the diving cover fielder to collect his third boundary

3.5 - Roach to Burns, FOUR, Michael Slater on air says, "It deserved to go." And he is right, another half volley outside off, Burns presses forward, opens the bat face and drives it square of the wicket. Third boundary of the over and Australia are off to a flier once again

3.4 - Roach to Burns, FOUR, Roach is struggling with his consistency. This was on middle and leg, Burns says thank you very much and helps himself to another boundary, tickles it fine and beats the fielder in the deep

3.2 - Roach to Burns, FOUR, half volley and Roach pays the price for it. He was looking for the outswinger, but the length was too full and Burns gets nice and low and creams it through the off-side, the timing takes care of the rest

2.1 - Jerome Taylor to Burns, FOUR, short and sat up nicely for Burns to pick up his first boundary. Burns transfered his weight back and pulled it over square leg, though it was not off the middle, the ball had enough to reach the fence

1.5 - Roach to Warner, FOUR, was that a chance? Yes, just about carried to Ramdin. He got a fingertip. That would have been a superb catch. Roach keeps it in the corridor around off, Warner has a tentative poke and the outside edge flies to the left of Ramdin, he dives full length and gets a finger. The ball races away to the fence. He could have done better

1.2 - Roach to Warner, FOUR, Warner opens his account in typical fashion. Tad overpitched and Warner is all over it. He gently caresses it through extra cover, the lightning fast outfield does the rest. First boundary of the day

68.0 - Siddle to Darren Bravo, FOUR, slashed away! This was short and slightly wide outside off, Bravo quickly goes on the back foot and cracks it square of the wicket, races away to the fence in a jiffy

66.0 - Siddle to Darren Bravo, FOUR, that's it! Bravo brings up his 7th Test hundred, first against Australia and sixth away from home. Jumps high and punches the air in delight. Takes off his helmet and waves his bat to the applause, gets a hug from Kemar Roach as well. After all that, he kneels down and kisses the pitch. Coming to the ball, this was pitched up outside off, Bravo comes forward and drives it to the right of point, Lyon gives chase but the ball runs away to the fence. Has been a great knock so far

65.2 - Siddle to Darren Bravo, FOUR, half-volley outside off, Bravo leans into the drive and caresses it through the extra cover region, didn't come right off the middle but it had enough on it to reach the fence. Moves to 98 with this boundary

62.5 - J Pattinson to Darren Bravo, leg byes, FOUR, tell you what, the Aussie pacers have been really off-colour today. I know the scorebook suggests otherwise. But clearly down on pace and lacking in direction. Another one down leg, Bravo misses out on the flick and the ball runs away fine off the thigh pad

61.3 - Lyon to Roach, FOUR, flighted well above the eyeline, doesn't quite get the dip and hence it ends up being a tasty half-volley, Roach blasts the drive through the cover region

58.1 - J Pattinson to Darren Bravo, FOUR, Bravo has to exercise a bit more caution here. Still going for these expansive drives with the day coming to a close. The length wasn't quite there. Only a fraction full and the angle always taking it away from him. Throws his hands with laden feet. Catches a thick outside edge and flies away wide of gully

57.0 - Hazlewood to Darren Bravo, FOUR, oh pristine. Actually, 'pristine' doesn't even cover it. This is a radiating extra-cover drive. Wow. His feet don't go anywhere, just the hands. What hands. Full ball slanted away outside off, Bravo thumps the drive wide of mid-off. Lovely bat swing and extension of the arms

56.2 - Hazlewood to Darren Bravo, FOUR, deftly played. Although his weight wasn't quite on the front foot, he allowed the ball to come to him before opening the bat-face. Length ball angling away, Bravo was still pressing forward when he made connection. Escorts it to the third man boundary

53.0 - Hazlewood to Darren Bravo, FOUR, what's happened here? An edge has gone right through the slip cordon. Shortish outside off, Bravo flashes hard but can only find an edge. It went between first and second slip. Closer to Smith at second I think. But he didn't make an attempt whatsover. Rather, swayed away from the path of the ball. Voges wasn't expecting it. Puts in a belated dive but by then it was too late

50.4 - Mitchell Marsh to Darren Bravo, FOUR, how good is this man! Just a treat to watch when lacing these drives. Not a bad delivery at all. Only a fraction full just outside off, Bravo presses towards the line of the ball and stylishly drives it wide of mid-off

50.2 - Mitchell Marsh to Darren Bravo, FOUR, skiddy back of a length delivery angled away outside off, Bravo stands tall and punches it away. Was originally looking to go through the covers but the bat-face opens up a bit. Perhaps because he got it high on the bat. Skittles away through the backward point region

48.3 - Mitchell Marsh to Darren Bravo, FOUR, shortish and just outside off stump, Bravo rocks back and pulls it very straight, wide of mid-on for four

47.1 - Lyon to Roach, FOUR, overpitched and punished. Flighted full and outside off stump, Roach drives it through cover for a boundary

45.2 - Lyon to Darren Bravo, FOUR, just short enough for Bravo to rock back and cut through point, the line was pretty close to the off stump, but Bravo made room for himself by backing away to the leg-side

44.2 - J Pattinson to Roach, FOUR, now that is from the middle of the bat. Full and outside off stump, Roach leans forward, presents the full face of the bat and drives it through cover

44.0 - Siddle to Darren Bravo, FOUR, cracking shot! Siddle tried the outswinger, but it didn't swing much, it was nice and in the slot and Bravo leans nicely forward to crash it through cover

41.0 - J Pattinson to Darren Bravo, FOUR, top shot! Full and on the stumps, Bravo waits for the ball to come and flicks it to the left of the man at mid-on, who had no chance of stopping that

38.3 - J Pattinson to Darren Bravo, FOUR, loose drive, uppish, but thankfully for Bravo, it was in the gap. Full and wide outside off stump, Bravo slices the drive but there was no one at point to snaffle it

38.1 - J Pattinson to Darren Bravo, FOUR, some action straightaway for Pattinson. Good length delivery pitching around leg stump line, keeps a bit low as well, squares up Bravo, who was on the back foot to defend, the ball takes the toe-end of the bat and runs away through gully

33.1 - Lyon to Holder, FOUR, that's a positive blow from the West Indies captain. Flighted delivery on the stumps, Holder clears his front leg out of the way and lofts the drive one bounce over mid-on

30.1 - Hazlewood to Ramdin, FOUR, almost knocked over. Fullish and outside off stump, Ramdin doesn't get fully forward, yet goes hard at the drive and plays away from the body, gets a thick edge and just escapes past the stump

24.4 - Siddle to Darren Bravo, FOUR, I thought it was mistimed, but it beat the fielder and travelled quickly to the fence. On a length and just outside off, Bravo drives it on the up, he went too hard and the bottom hand came off the of the bat, he still managed to beat the mid-off fielders dive and collect four

23.5 - Lyon to Samuels, FOUR, Lyon drops it short and gets punished, Samuels stays leg-side of the ball and opens up the off-side field, punches through cover-point and picks up his first boundary

22.5 - Hazlewood to Darren Bravo, FOUR, fabulous shot! Nothing much wrong with the delivery. It was back of a length around off, Bravo goes back and punches through extra cover. The key there was timing and placement, he got both spot on

18.4 - J Pattinson to Darren Bravo, FOUR, smashed! No problems in putting this away. Short and width on offer, Bravo doesn't bother to get in-line, he stays leg-side of the ball and crunches it in front of square on the off-side, it travelled to the fence in no time

18.2 - J Pattinson to Darren Bravo, no ball, FOUR, second time Pattinson has overstepped in this spell. Right in the blockhole, Bravo looks to squeeze it out, the thickish outside edge flies past the gully fielder

17.1 - Lyon to Darren Bravo, FOUR, Lyon drops one short and pays the price. Bravo initially goes forward but transfers his weight back and slaps it through extra cover, he hit it hard enough to pick up his first boundary

15.0 - J Pattinson to Rajendra Chandrika, FOUR, lovely shot! First boundary of the innings. Pitched up on off and middle, Chandrika presents the full face of the bat and drives it past the non-striker, mid-on gives chase only to come second

14.0 - Lyon to Darren Bravo, byes, FOUR, ah, you rarely get these with Lyon. The gutter ball I mean. Skids on after pitching on leg, misses everything - the flick of Bravo and the gloves of the keeper

1.0 - Hazlewood to Kraigg Brathwaite, leg byes, FOUR, here they are. The first runs on the board. Albeit via leg-byes. Pitched right up looking for the nip in the air. Once again the ball just follows the angle and sneaks down leg-stump. Brathwaite is too late on his flick and the ball deflects off the pad and runs away fine
