West Indies held the upper hand at the end of the third day of the first Test on Monday as they reduced Australia to 248 for 5, still trailing by 201 runs.
Only a solid 73 by captain Michael Clarke and a typically stubborn unbeaten 47 by veteran Mike Hussey at least all but ensured that the Aussies would avoid the follow-on.
The day started well for the home side and, in particular, for their captain Darren Sammy.
Following his positive batting display on Sunday, he brought himself on to open the bowling.
Having added only one run to his overnight score of 13, Ed Cowan was drawn into a shot to a ball just outside off stump and edged through to the keeper.
