Mitchell Starc removed both openers on the third evening and struck in the fifth over of the day as he bowled Shane Dowrich (4).
Josh Hazlewood then induced Darren Bravo (11) into an edge to gully and then, in his next over, Jermaine Blackwood played on to depart for a duck.

WI had slipped from their overnight 16-2 to 40-5 at drinks, and it got worse for the men from the Caribbean as Mitchell Johnson bowled Shai Hope (16) through the gate and Jason Holder (1) chipped Shane Watson to Starc at short mid-wicket.

They went to lunch on 72-7, and although Dinesh Ramdin and Veerasammy Permaul put on 49 for the eighth wicket, the final three wickets fell in the space of 11 balls.
Ramdin (29) edged Johnson to Clarke at second slip before Nathan Lyon had Kemar Roach caught at short leg.

Lyon wrapped up the victory with his next ball as Jerome Taylor had an ugly heave across the line and saw his middle stump pegged back—a shot that was a reflection of the hosts' performance.
Australia next head to England for the Ashes, with the series beginning on July 8.
