West Indies face a must-win situation heading into the second Test in Adelaide. They lost the first Test by a big margin and are now chasing the series to keep it alive. The Windies are placed sixth in the WTC points table with four wins and as many losses from 10 Test matches.

Windies will be led by Kraigg Brathwaite who is fresh off two good scores in the first Test. He scored 64 in the first and 110 in the second innings. He will need help from the rest of the senior players if they are to win the match and level the series.
