In the third ODI, Kjorn Ottley failed to bat well and was out after scoring 8 runs with the help of 2 fours in 7 balls.
In the third and final ODI match played at Manuka Oval, Canberra on 6 February, Australia defeated West Indies by eight wickets and won the three-match ODI series 3–0. In this ODI series, all the players from Australia performed very well and played an important role in the victory of their team.
Former Australian cricketer Mark Waugh has given a big statement regarding the dismissal of West Indies’ young opening batsman Kjorn Ottley in the third ODI. Let us tell you, in the third ODI match, Kjorn Ottley failed to bat well and was out after scoring 8 runs with the help of 2 fours in 7 balls. His wicket was taken by Xavier Bartlett.
Kjorn Ottley was trying to hit a ball from Xavier Bartlett hard in the third over but the ball hit his bat and went straight to the batsman’s pad. The hosts appealed for LBW against the West Indies opener and the umpire gave him out. The biggest mistake Kjorn Ottley made was that he did not ask for DRS and he returned to the pavilion without saying anything.
Mark Waugh, who was commenting at that time, said on air, ‘The ball has hit his bat! What stupidity. Two voices came and what are they doing? That is just not true. Because of this thinking, batsmen are not able to perform well. There is a need to find it in the right way.
Australia won the ODI series
In the third ODI, West Indies, batting first, scored only 86 runs after losing all the wickets. On behalf of the team, Alick Athanaze scored 32 runs with the help of two fours in 60 balls while Roston Chase contributed 12 runs. Keacy Carty scored 10 runs. Apart from these three batsmen, no other batsman could cross the 10-run mark.
Australia won this match by 8 wickets. For the hosts, Jake Fraser-McGurk scored 41 runs in 18 balls with the help of five fours and three sixes while Josh Inglis contributed 35* runs. The three-match ODI series between these two teams has ended and now the three-match T20 series between the two teams is starting from February 9.

So in his column written for a newspaper, Johnson had even called Warner’s wife, who was constantly defending him, cringe. After this Warner had some words about Johnson. After this, Johnson wrote a scathing article about Warner’s role in the 2018 Sandpapergate case. On the other hand, now that both have retired from the game, the duo is going to be seen working together again. It is noteworthy that the broadcasters have signed contracts with both the legendary players for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series between India and Australia starting from November 22. Johnson will be seen commentating for Cricket 7 and Warner Fox Cricket. On the other hand, before facing each other in this series, Johnson has said that he is hopeful that his differences with Warner will be resolved. Mitchell Johnson gave a big statement Let us tell you that before BGT, Johnson was quoted by The Nightly as saying – We are adults, and you have to move on. You live your own life. We meet each other sometimes. So according to me I am an adult, he (Warner) is an adult. You wish each other well as you have a great day. So, I don’t take much from one incident. Johnson further said – This is no longer about us, now we are in the commentary box, we are there to give information. In recent times, I have also given an insight regarding that. He is one of those characters who becomes difficult. But you say what you feel. He’s a former player now, he’s in the commentary box like everyone else, and I think he should be able to give insight.
