Adam Voges keeps Australia in command against West Indies with debut century

West Indies are trailing Australia by 145 runs at the end of day two of the first Test in Dominica.

Adam Voges, 35, scored a century to become the oldest player in Test history to achieve that feat on his debut, with his 130 runs putting the tourists in command.

Australia were bowled out for 318 after Voges and Josh Hazlewood combined for a 97-run final wicket partnership, as the latter of the Baggy Greens duo fell to Marlon Samuels.

Prior to that, Devendra Bishoo starred to send Steven Smith (25), Shane Watson (11), Brad Haddin (8), Mitchell Johnson (20) and Mitchell Starc (0) packing, although some impressive batting by Voges ensured that the Aussies remain on top heading into the final session of play.

It was then that Hazlewood was dismissed, leaving the West Indies two wickets down and trailing by 145 runs heading into day three.
