Australia in the West Indies
Aussies held to draw in Jamaica
Looks like the Kat is making a good stride to trying to maintain a test spot with Clarke out for one test. 97 & 37* plus wickets with his bowling, when Clarke gets back maybe it might be time for Andrew Symonds to start looking over his shoulder????![Wink ;) ;)](/community/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png)
Aussies held to draw in Jamaica
RAIN prevented Australia from making a winning start to their tour of the West Indies with the tourists left just 31 runs short of victory when bad weather forced an early end to their three-day tour game.
With the first Test beginning at Sabina Park on Thursday, Australia looked set to record a comfortable victory against a Jamaica XI but were forced from the field at 1-65 with more than 90 minutes left to play when rain lashed the ground.
Simon Katich capped off a man of the match performance by scoring an unbeaten 37 today after top scoring with 97 in the first innings and taking six wickets with his part-time spinners.
Jamaica XI 1st Innings 297
Australia 1st Innings 396
Jamaica XI 2nd Innings 194
Australia 2nd Innings 1/65
