Australia vs West Indies, 2nd Test, Day 1 Live Updates: Marnus Labuschagne Scores Half-century, Australia 3 Down

AUS vs WI, 2nd Day-Night Test, Day 1 Live Updates: Australia have lost three wickets of openers David Warner (21) and Usman Khawaja (62) along with stand-in skipper Steve Smith (0) on Day 1 of the second Test. No. 3 batter Marnus Labuschagne has scored a half-century. Earlier, Smith won the toss and chose to bat against the West Indies in the second day-night Test at Adelaide Oval on Thursday. The home side are looking to wrap up the two-match series after winning in Perth on Sunday by 164 runs, while the West Indies continue to search for a first Test win on Australian soil in 25 years. Smith has assumed the captaincy from Pat Cummins who was ruled out with a mild thigh problem, allowing Scott Boland to start for the first time since their Ashes campaign against England a year ago. Fellow pace spearhead Josh Hazlewood is also absent due to “general soreness” with Michael Neser replacing him. The West Indies have been beset by injuries and made three changes. (LIVE SCORECARD)
