West Indies vs Australia, ODIs: Players ratings for visitors Image

Here are the ratings for the Australians for the ODIs in West Indies.

Mitchell Starc 9.5 (M 3 W 11 Ave 10.63 Ec 4.30)

A terrific outing for Starc, who topped the wickets charts. His 11 wickets came at an average of 10.63. He claimed five wickets in the first game to bowl out West Indies for 123, then took two wickets in each of the other matches.

Josh Hazlewood 9 (M 2 W 5 Ave 5.80 Ec 2.07)

Hazlewood played a perfect foil to Starc. He picked up three wickets in the first ODI, was rested for the second, and had 8-1-18-2 in the third.

Alex Carey 8.5 (M 3 R 112 Ave 37.33 SR 74)

Carey led in the absence of Aaron Finch. He held the innings after the early collapse in the first ODI, making 67 in 87 balls. He did the same in the third, after Australia lost both openers inside eight overs.

Adam Zampa 8 (M 3 W 5 Ave 22.20 Ec 4.97)

Zampa was taken apart by Kieron Pollard in the first match, but did well to take two wickets in each of the next two.

Matthew Wade 8 (M 3 R 90 Ave 45 SR 73)

Wade got a chance only after Finch was ruled out. He proved his utility with a crucial fifty in the decider to help Australia win.

Ashton Agar 7 (M 1 W 2 Ave 15.50 Ec 3.10 R 19)

Ashton Agar made the most of his only opportunity. He picked up two wickets, remained unbeaten on 19 to see Australia home, and was adjudged Player of the Match.

Ashton Turner 6.5 (M 3 R 50 Ave 25 SR 102)

Turner added 104 runs with Carey for the fifth wicket in the second match to bring Australia back in the game after a flurry of early wickets.

Josh Philippe 6.5 (M 3 R 65 Ave 21.66 SR 73)

Australia showed great trust in young Philippe. He threw away two starts. His 42-ball 39 in the first ODI was a decent hand.

Wes Agar 5 (M 2 W 0 Ec 3.54 R 50 SR 119)

Wes Agar did not gave away many runs and was unlucky to have nothing to show for. He made 41 in 36 balls to help Australia reach 187 in the second match.

Mitchell Marsh 4 (M 3 R 57 Ave 19 W 1 Ec 4.33)

Marsh did not live up to the expectation he himself set with otherworldly performances in the recently concluded T20I series.

Ben McDermott 3 (M 2 R 28 Ave 14 SR 56)

Not an ideal outing for McDermott, who was dropped after scoring 28 runs from two matches.

Riley Meredith 2 (M 1 W 0 Ec 7.20)

Another lacklustre outing for Meredith. He came in for Hazlewood in the second ODI, and was the most expensive Australian bowler.

Moises Henriques 1 (M 3 R 12 Ave 4)

An aggregate of 12 runs across 3 matches for Henriques, who fell to Akeal Hosein every time.
