Australia Defeats West Indies in Andre Russell's Farewell T20I

West Indies cricketer Andre Russell played his final international match in the second Twenty20 International against Australia at Sabina Park, Kingston, where Australia secured an emphatic eight-wicket win to take a 2-0 lead in the five-match series. Despite a spirited 36 off 15 balls from Russell, who received a guard of honor before his nostalgic farewell, Australia's Josh Inglis and Cameron Green dominated with unbeaten half-centuries, forging a record third-wicket partnership of 119 runs to chase down 173 comfortably. Russell expressed gratitude for ending his career in front of home fans but lamented the limited opportunities he had in Test cricket, having played only one Test match early in his career. Australia’s bowlers, led by Adam Zampa's three wickets, maintained control throughout, while West Indies struggled with fielding errors, dropping six catches. Inglis praised managing the innings tempo alongside Green, noting the challenge posed by spin bowling on the pitch. Australia, having already won the preceding Test series 3-0, can clinch the T20I series with a win in the next match in Basseterre.
