, which is a Day-Night affair in Kingston, saw bowlers dominate on Day 1.

After winning the toss and opting to bat, Australia were bowled out for 225 runs in 70.3 overs.

Opener Sam Konstas was the first one to depart as Justin Greaves trapped him for 17.

Greaves struck on his first delivery, trapping Konstas lbw for 17.

The young opener managed a couple of boundaries during his 53-ball stay.

He did decently well against the new pink cherry but failed to convert his start yet again.

Having batted five times in this series, Konstas is yet to touch the 30-run mark even once.

Konstas scored 3 and 5 in the series opener in Bridgetown before managing 25 and 0 in the St George's game.

Though the Aussies clinched both matches, Konstas was heavily criticized for his poor returns.

His latest failure means the 19-year-old has just managed 50 runs at 10 in this series.

This series has indeed been tough for batters. However, no other recognized Australian batter has managed under 100 runs.

Notably, Konstas made a stunning debut in the 2024 Boxing Day Test against India at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).

The 19-year-old scored a brisk 60 off 65 balls in his maiden outing as he brilliantly tackled the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj.

However, he failed to touch the 30-run mark in each of his following eight innings.

Hence, his Test numbers read 163 runs from five Tests at 18.11.
