Australia will seek to keep an unbeaten streak in T20 cricket dating back to last September alive when it tackles the West Indies in Basseterre on Saturday morning AEST.
The Aussies can continue their dominant tour of the Caribbean in the clash being played in the capital of Saint Kitts and Nevis, which will be broadcast on ESPN, available on Kayo Sports.
Western Australians Cameron Green and Josh Inglis, along with newcomer Mitch Owen, are among those to star with the bat in the first two games of the five match series.

Australia can clinch the series with a victory on Saturday after posting three wicket and eight wicket triumphs in the first two matches, which were hosted in Kingston.
The final three matches of the series will be held in Basseterre, which could bring a change in conditions after the Australians easily reeled in the West Indies targets of 189 and 172 in the first two outings.
The Aussies are looking ahead to next February’s T20 World Cup in Sri Lanka and India and are on a five match winning streak in the format after sweeping a series against Pakistan at home last November.

Following the Caribbean tour, Australia will host South Africa in a three match tour next month and then India in late October and early November for five games.
Green has settled in well at No.4 with two half-centuries from as many matches so far, while Inglis batted superbly at first drop in the most recent outing and wants that spot permanently.
After dazzling form in the Big Bash League, Owen demonstrated he was capable of succeeding on the international scene as well with a half-century in the opening game.
The hosts will be desperate to keep the series alive heading into the fourth game on Sunday, having previously been swept 3-0 in the Test series by Australia.
