(Reuters) - West Indies fast bowler Obed McCoy took four wickets after Andre Russell's maiden half-century as the Twenty20 world champions produced a superb comeback to outclass Australia by 18 runs in the first game of their five-match series at St Lucia on Friday.
Chasing 146 for victory, Australia were still in control at 117-6 thanks to Mitchell Marsh's 51, before spinner Hayden Walsh (3-23) triggered a batting collapse and McCoy (4-26) wiped out the tail as they were dismissed for 127 in 16 overs.
