Hayley Matthews was Player of the Match for her 99 not out from 74 balls and 1 for 17 with the ball but her team was soundly beaten. West Indies need to regroup ahead of the 2nd T20I at the same venue tomorrow night. That wraps up our coverage today. Join us for game two tomorrow.

3.12pm Australia win by eight wickets with 40 balls to spare. That was dominant. Australia far too good. West Indies weren't really in it. Hayley Matthews was sensational with the bat but got no support. West Indies fielding was very poor. If they had caught the numerous chances on offer they could have at least tested Australia but they were always short on runs. Healy and McGrath produced a power-packed display.

Zaida James to Gardner, SIX, slog sweep over deep midwicket and through the hands of Connell on the rope! Gardner lined it up, was down on one knee to smear over midwicket. It was hit flat at a catchable height and she spills it reaching above her head. She could have saved runs

James has to finish the over. Free hit to start
