ADELAIDE, Australia (CMC) — West Indies coach David Williams says Australian bowling attack holds no terrors and lacks the experience to compare with their successful predecessors.

After a lopsided defeat in the first Test in Brisbane, West Indies rallied for a draw in the second Test that ended Tuesday at the Adelaide Oval and Williams is not surprised the Caribbean side managed to post solid totals of 451 and 317 while dominating the Adelaide Test.

“From the very outset we said the (Australian) attack is not very experienced,” Williams said.

Williams believes his side’s innings defeat in Brisbane was due to a flimsy batting performance.

“We played poorly at Brisbane, so their bowling looked very good,” Williams said.

In Adelaide, West Indies were in front on first innings after a third Test hundred from all-rounder Dwayne Bravo (104), backed up by pivotal knocks from Brendan Nash (92), Shivnarine Chanderpaul (62), Darren Sammy (44) and Ravi Rampaul (40).

Captain Chris Gayle then led the way with a critical 165 not out in the second innings that threatened to set up an upset win over the home side.

Williams believes the Adelaide Test proves that the Australian bowling attack is beatable.

“In this (Adelaide) game, we showed a lot more application and commitment and the (Australia) attack to me is still one that can be taken apart,” he said.

“Apart from the ball swinging around a bit, the guys stuck to their guns,” Williams said.

The Australians take an unbeatable 1-0 lead in the third and final Test starting on December 16 (next Tuesday night Caribbean time) in Perth.
