Hobart: Opener David Warner Monday vowed Australia will show no mercy to the West Indies in this week's first Test in Hobart after the tourists' embarrassing warm-up defeat.

As a batting unit we know they are going to come real hard in the first session. "They did that when we were in the West Indies, they got early wickets against us.
