Australia and West Indies will square off in the third and final Test of the ongoing series at Sabina Park, starting Sunday, July 13, at 12:00 AM IST. With the series already decided in Australia's favour after dominant wins in the first two Tests, the visitors now seek a 3-0 clean sweep, while the hosts hope to salvage pride with a consolation victory.
Australia Pat Cummins and his team enter the final Test with confidence sky-high. The Aussies have delivered two clinical performances so far, winning by 159 and 133 runs in the first and second Tests respectively. With the series in the bag, Australia may consider giving opportunities to fringe players while still keeping their winning momentum intact.
West Indies The West Indies have been outplayed across both Tests, with the top order struggling to handle Australia’s bowling firepower. Their inability to post big totals has been the biggest concern, and despite brief resistance from the middle order, consistency remains elusive. With a raucous home crowd expected in Kingston, Roston Chase's side will look to regroup and produce a strong team effort to avoid a whitewash.

How Will The Sabina Park Pitch in Kingston Behave? The pitch at Sabina Park in Kingston has traditionally offered a balanced contest between bat and ball. With 55 Tests hosted here, the venue has seen more success for teams batting second. The surface tends to offer variable bounce early on, assisting fast bowlers who can exploit movement off the seam. However, as the game progresses, the pitch settles, rewarding patient batting.
Spinners may come into play on Days 3 and 4 as cracks open up. Given the draws recorded, the outfield and conditions can slow games down. Captains winning the toss may opt to bowl first, especially with chasing teams historically enjoying better success here.
