A stubborn Shivnarine Chanderpaul and the more expansive Dwayne Bravo guided West Indies to 3-194 against Australia at tea on Day One of the second Test at the Adelaide Oval.

The visitors began the afternoon with the setback of Brendan Nash (20) retiring hurt at lunch due to a blow he sustained on the right forearm, but Chanderpaul (54 not out) and Bravo (46 not out) combined neatly to prevent further loss and give the Windies some chance of a decent total on a pristine Adelaide pitch.
