Rick Ponting's Australia are one wicket away from winning the third and final Test at the WACA ground


Rick Ponting's Australia are one wicket away from winning the third and final Test at the WACA ground. On the other hand, the West Indies are 51 shy of a famous victory at a ground where Australia have lost their last two Test matches (India and South Africa in 2008).

Set to score 359 for a win, the West Indies began poorly but prospered mid-way through the efforts of Narsingh Deonarine (82) and Brendan Nash (65).

Much depends on the last pair of Kemar Roach (13 not out) and Gavin Tonge (12 not out).
