The West Indies were batting all day on this fourth day of the 2nd test in the series against Australia. Despite an expected Australian dominance they had been 12 runs behind after the first innings. By Day 4 the West Indies looked they might make a game of this but instead batted slowly and carefully, behaving as though they wanted to protect the wicket rather than score runs.
