Summary A maiden century by Adam Voges led Australia to a 17-run victory over West Indies in fifth ODI.

 

MELBOURNE: Australia has a sweep of the five-match series.


Voges made an unbeaten 112, eclipsing his previous highest one-day international score of 80, to help Australia overcome a disastrous start and reach 274 for five, batting first after losing the toss.


West Indies opening batsman Johnson Charles, a Twenty20 specialist, reached his first one-day international hundred and was out next ball as the West Indies lagged behind the needed run rate and were eventually all out for 257 with one ball remaining.
