After the first day of their tour opener, Australia flayed the Carribean Beer XI (yep, that's correct. Lol) to the tune of 3/377.
Matthew Hayden made 102 and Justin Langer, 60 in a bright opening partnership.
Steve Waugh and Martin Love (56) continued the onslaught. Waugh is not out on 106 and Darren Lehmann is 44.

The Aussies declared on the overnight score and then skittled the Beer XI (Lol) for 132. Their left handed opener, Imran Jan, carried his bat to be 42 n.o.
Hoggy took 4/23 from 6.3 overs and MacGilla took 2/49 from 8. Dizzy had a good 9 over workout (2/13) and Bic took 2/10 from 6.
Australia batted again with Hogg, Bichel and Noffke batting in the firtst 4. At stumps they are 8/180 - a lead of 425 - with Love on 55. Lehmann made 42.

Australia were given a solid workout as the Carribean Beer XI put on 222 for 7th wicket to draw the match.
Chasing 442 to win, the Beer XI were 6/180 and the Aussies were cruising and Brad Hogg was making a spirited bid to grab Warney's spot in the Test lineup ahead of Stuart MacGill by taking the first 5 wickets but Narsingh Deonarine (141 n.o.) and Carlton Baugh (115 n.o.) hit out. At one stage they took 35 from 2 overs.
With 9 overs to go, the locals needed 81 from 9 overs and were right in it but shut up shop when the ask got too big.
Hogg finished with 5/122 from 22 overs after being on 5/50 and MacGill bowled 26 overs for 1/126.
