West Indies bat in dead rubber

Toss West Indies bat v Australia
Scorecard and ball-by-ball details

Darren Sammy, the West Indies captain, won the toss and chose to bat first against Australia in the fourth ODI at the SCG.

With the series decided 3-0 in Australia's favour, both sides made changes to their teams. The visitors omitted the injured Chris Gayle, Ramnaresh Sarwan and Kemar Roach, their places taken by Johnson Charles, Narsingh Deonarine and Tino Best.

Michael Clarke's team did not feature George Bailey, who was missing due to a hamstring strain, his place taken by Adam Voges. Mitchell Starc was spelled after his exertions in the first three matches, Ben Cutting included instead.

Sydney's weather is spotless and the pitch appears dry, affording the chance for runs in the afternoon then some assistance for the West Indies' spinner Sunil Narine later on.

Australia 1 Shane Watson, 2 Aaron Finch, 3 Phillip Hughes, 4 Michael Clarke (capt), 5 Adam Voges, 6 Matthew Wade (wk), 7 Glenn Maxwell, 8 James Faulkner, 9 Mitchell Johnson, 10 Ben Cutting, 11 Clint McKay.
