“Joseph has breathed new life into the West Indies” – Leon Johnson

Yesterday’s victory in Australia had been 27 years in the making; the last time the West Indies won a test match before then was in February of 1997.

With Australia heading into the fourth day on 60/2 with the great Steve Smith at the crease looking close to his best, many have relegated the West Indies to another loss.

However, Shamar Joseph, the hero of yesterday’s great heist, had other ideas, bowling the West Indies to an eight-run victory with sublime figures of 7/68.
