Get it right the first time that's the main thing

Get it right the first time that's the main thing It's old news now: Australia has won the third test against the West Indies on the fifth day, with plenty of time and runs in hand. They won the series 2-0. Best for the Aussies in the series were Brett Lee (18 wickets at 23.72 and 103 runs at 34.22) and Simon Katich (319 runs at 63.8). Clark and Clarke were also good. For the West Indies, and both teams, it was Chanderpaul. Chiv stood tall. Well, as tall as can be expected. From the 1000 balls he faced, he scored 442 runs at 147.33, making two centuries and three fifties. In the 2nd and 3rd Tests, he batted for 18 hours, being dismissed only on the final day of the series.
