AUS vs WI Key battles:

Sam Konstas vs Shamar Joseph

Sam Konstas will get another opportunity in the third Test and will look to make the most of it after failing to do so in the first two matches.

Konstas will be up against Shamar Joseph, who has been the pick of the bowlers for the West Indies in the series.

Alex Carey vs Jayden Seales

Left-handed wicketkeeper batter Alex Carey has bailed the team in the series so far while batting with the lower-order batters and would wish for his task to be a bit easier in the upcoming game.

Carey will face the challenge of Jayden Seales, who has been able to build pressure with the new ball.

Kraigg Brathwaite vs Pat Cummins

West Indies' former Test skipper Kraigg Brathwaite hasn't been able to get a big score in the series so far and will look to do so in the last match.

Brathwaite will go head-to-head against the Australian captain Pat Cummins, who has bowled tirelessly in the first two matches.

Roston Chase vs Nathan Lyon

Newly appointed skipper of the Windies, Roston Chase, will look to get things right in the final game of the series after not being able to convert starts into big scores in the first two Tests.

Chase will have to tackle the off-spin of Nathan Lyon, who has been effective as the lone specialist spinner in Australia's playing XI.
