Aussies
fight back and conquer Windies
 Australia
captain Ricky Ponting paid tribute to bowler Stuart
Clark after his five-wicket haul helped secure victory
over West Indies.
West Indies managed just 191, falling 95 runs short
of their target with Clark and Brett Lee in impressive
form.
A rare batting collapse in their second innings saw
Australia set West Indies 287 for victory, but Clark
captured a career-best five wickets for 32 runs to bowl
Australia to a 95-run win.
“How could you not admire what he’s done?
He’s averaged around 20 in 125 or so Test matches,”
said Ponting.
“That’s a great achievement, especially when
he hasn’t bowled with the new ball on a lot of
those occasions.”
Ponting added: “He’s been the guy a bit like
Glenn (McGrath) was when he was in the side, whatever
the situation required, you know that he’ll come
in and get the job done for you.
