Australia retained the Frank Worrell Trophy after the second Test against West Indies ended in a draw at Trinidad Thursday. Any hopes of a decisive result on the fifth day were ruined by a mid-afternoon shower that forced an early end to proceedings at Queen's Park Oval. The Australians, who won last week's first Test in Barbados in a final day thriller, set West Indies a target of 215 runs from 61 overs to win after declaring its second innings closed at 160 for eight after lunch. West Indies lost both openers cheaply but recovered to reach 53-2 when play was halted first by bad light and then rain. All five days of the match were interrupted by foul weather and the signs were ominous Thursday morning when the start was delayed by 45 minutes because of damp patches in the outfield from Wednesday's downpour. The Australians then made a cautious start, adding just 50 runs from the first 25 overs before lunch after losing the wickets of Ricky Ponting for 41 and Michael Clarke for 15. The Australians did raise the tempo after the resumption with Mike Hussey belting the first delivery for six. For a brief period, the runs started to flow and the wickets tumbled but the dark clouds were gathering. Hussey made 24 before he dragged a ball from Kemar Roach back on to his stumps. Roach then clean bowled Ben Hilfenhaus for duck in the same over to finish with 5-41 and complete his first 10-wicket haul at Test level. The 23-year-old became the first West Indian in seven years to take 10 wickets in a Test and the first since Curtly Ambrose in 1993 to do so against Australia. Nathan Lyon was the last man out, caught for three, leaving Matthew Wade unbeaten on 31. Hilfenahus briefly set pulses racing when he captured two wickets in his first two overs. He removed Adrian Barath for five in his first over, caught at slip by Clarke, then trapped Powell lbw for four before Sammy (30 not out) and Darren Bravo (eight not out) steadied the ship.
