Warner, Starc help Australia sweep T20I series against West Indies

The Hindu  

Australia’s David Warner smashed an incendiary half-century and Mitchell Starc claimed 4-20 to help the hosts beat West Indies by 31 runs in the second Twenty20 International and complete a 2-0 series sweep in Brisbane on Friday. Starc led Australia’s spirited defence of the total with career-best figures, while Josh Hazlewood conceded only 19 runs in his four overs even if he finished without a wicket. Warner’s form is crucial to Australia’s hopes of retaining its T20 World Cup title on home soil later this month and the left-hander looked in top shape as he tore into the West Indies attack. West Indies applied the brake in the last three overs, conceding only 21 runs, but still fell short of the target.
