Australian fast bowler Mitchell Starc produced a devastating opening spell as the West Indies were demolished for 27, the second-lowest score in Test history, to suffer a humiliating 176-run defeat on the third day of the third and final game at Sabina Park on Monday. Australia swept the series 3-0 after earlier victories in Barbados and Grenada to retain the Frank Worrell Trophy. Starc reached the landmark of 400 Test wickets and Scott Boland completed a hat-trick but the hosts just avoided New Zealand's record low of 26, set in 1955. 

"We didn't think things would start going our way with the ball today until the sun went down a bit," Starc said after collecting the player of the match and series awards. "But anyway our bowling attack has been pretty much on the money throughout the series," he added. West Indies captain Royston Chase warned his side must improve with the first of five T20 internationals on Monday. "Assessing this series is simple: the bowlers kept us in the contest and the batting let us down time after time," he said.
