Australia win by 133 runs as West Indies fold for 143 chasing 277 in Grenada
Australia beat West Indies by 133 runs at the National Cricket Stadium in St George's, Grenada, on 3 July 2025. Having won the toss and elected to bat, Australia posted 286 in their first innings, a score comfortably above the ground's average of 218 across 29 matches. West Indies replied with 253, staying within striking distance, but Australia added 243 in their second innings to set a target of 277. West Indies' second innings lasted just long enough to frustrate before they were dismissed for 143, ending the match well inside five days. AT Carey was named Player of the Match.
The margin of 133 runs tells most of the story. West Indies competed in the first half of the match, limiting the Australian first-innings lead to 33 runs. From that position, a result was far from inevitable. But Australia's second innings closed that window, and the fourth-innings chase of 277 on a surface that had already seen three completed innings proved too much. West Indies lost all 10 wickets for 143, a deficit of 134 on where they needed to be.
This result extended Australia's recent dominance over West Indies. The five matches immediately preceding this fixture were all Australian victories, three at Warner Park and two at Sabina Park, all in 2025. The all-time head-to-head now stands at 64 wins to Australia, 21 to West Indies, from 92 meetings.

Angles the data surfaced
- At a venue where the average first-innings score is 218, teams that exceed that mark significantly may find top-scorer markets worth examining before the first session.
- The chase success rate at National Cricket Stadium is 58% across 29 matches, suggesting the toss and first-innings total carry more weight here than at many other Test grounds.
- With Australia's pace and West Indies' swing options both having strong venue records, bowler performance markets could attract more interest than outright result lines.
- Australia's recent form in this series, six wins from six meetings in 2025 prior to and including this fixture, is context the markets will have reflected in any future encounter between these sides.
