What a tournament it has been so far, nobody would have predicted that West Indies would come in to the final. It's their first time while Australia contain been there before and won it five times.
West Indies are the only side that have beaten the Southern Stars in this tournament. No other team could achieve to do so. The nerves will be up there for them and there is a lot of hope from the Caribbean along with the support.
Pitch - It's a belting outside and is pretty dry. There are a few superficial cracks on the good length areas and the ball good hold up if the fuller length are opted for. Hitting through the line shouldn't be a problem.
Toss- Australia have win the toss in addition to chose to bat. They will look to post a total that would be further than the reach of the dangerous batters in the West Indian line up. Perry and Coyte come in today for Chappell and Ferling. Knight, the opener comes in for West Indies.
