Nathan Lyon was not out on five, with only Josh Hazlewood left to bat for Australia. After being helped off the ground with what appeared a badly injured toe from a searing Mitchell Starc yorker from the final ball of West Indies' second innings on Saturday, Joseph returned with a stunning spell of fast bowling to breathe life into the tourists' push for a famous test victory against Australia.

Joseph took 6-60 off ten overs with the 24-year-old reaching speeds of close to 150 kph (93 mph) and tore through the Australian middle order in a breathtaking spell. He bowled Cameron Green (42) to break a 71-run stand before blasting through Travis Head's defence with a yorker with his next ball. It was Head's second first-ball duck of the match.

Mitch Marsh (10) and Alex Carey (two) both came and went quickly as Australia wobbled and belief grew for West Indies of a stunning upset. Starc made 21 before he became Joseph's fifth wicket when he was caught by Kevin Sinclair at cover. Cummins, who scored a career-high 64 not out in the first innings could only manage two before he edged a ball through to Joshua da Silva with Australia still requiring 41 runs to win.
