The West Indies suffered an eight wicket defeat to Australia at Sabina Park on Tuesday night on the occasion of Andre Russell’s final game at the international level.
The win by Australia has given them a 2-0 lead in the five match T20 International series.
Man-of-the-Match Josh Inglis smashed an unbeaten 78 off 33 balls, with seven fours and five sixes and Cameron Green 56 off 33, to guide Australia to the target of 173 with eight wickets and 28 balls to spare.
The two shared in a blistering record-breaking third wicket stand for Australia to lead the victory charge and deny Russell a fairytale farewell.
The Windies had earlier posted 172 for 8 in their 20 overs on the back of 51 from Brandon King and 36 from Russell himself.
Adam Zampa claimed 3 for 29 while there were two wickets apiece for Glen Maxwell and Nathan Ellis.
The series moves to St. Kitts for the last three games.
