WI vs AUS Match Prediction : Australia tour of West Indies, 5th T20, 2025

A rain-delayed thriller in the fourth T20 ended with another win for the Aussies, despite a spirited but flawed West Indies effort. Their top order fired in bursts, and the total was strong — but dropped catches, erratic death bowling, and a weak middle overs phase undid the effort. Australia, meanwhile, just keep finding new match-winners.

Is there any gas left in the tank for a Caribbean consolation win? Based on current evidence, that’s a tough bet to back.

WI vs AUS Team Previews

West Indies

West Indies are creating new records, but mostly for the wrong reasons. In the last match, they became the first team in T20I history to score 200+ without a single batter crossing 34. That says a lot about their depth, but even more about their inability to convert starts.

Blades impressed with 3 wickets and decent pace, but he was let down by poor fielding and multiple dropped chances.

Romario Shepherd continues to be a force with the bat, but leaks too many runs with the ball. The spin attack is toothless, and the captaincy continues to miss timely intervention. They need a collective lift, especially in the field, to avoid a 5-0 scoreline.

West Indies Expected Playing 11

Brandon King, Shai Hope (c & wk), Shimron Hetmyer, Roston Chase, Rovman Powell, Sherfane Rutherford, Jason Holder, Romario Shepherd, Akeal Hosein, Matthew Forde, Jediah Blades

Australia

Maxwell’s brilliance was on full display again, with 47 off 18 and two outrageous catches. Inglis and Green continue their prolific run with the bat. Even when they lost four wickets quickly, Australia never looked rattled, which is a testament to their depth and game awareness.

Hardie and Bartlett struck in the powerplay, Zampa and Abbott were expensive but took wickets, and Ellis continues to be economical under pressure. With Tim David and Dwarshuis rested, the bench strength has passed every test.

Australia Expected Playing 11

Mitchell Marsh (c), Glenn Maxwell, Josh Inglis (wk), Cameron Green, Tim David, Mitchell Owen, Aaron Hardie, Sean Abbott, Xavier Bartlett, Adam Zampa, Nathan Ellis

WI vs AUS: Who Will Win?

West Indies are fun to watch, but fundamentally flawed. Australia is smart, deep, and ruthless. With all departments firing and a whitewash on the line, expect them to bring their A-game one final time.

Their bench has stepped up, their big names are in top gear, and their ability to close out tight games is unmatched.
