Tests against Australia is going to be a bigger test! Phil Simmons - 1shanemarsh - 05-07-2015
While the win against England will be a huge boost to the team's confidence, West Indies will now gear up to face the mighty Australians at home for two Tests next month. Simmons believed that it will be more testing than the recent series against England.
"No disrespect to England but it (Tests against Australia) is going to be a bigger test, especially for the batsmen. Their quality of bowling and the bowling lineup that they possess is a better one than England have. You are going to be tested more.

Oz don't have a Jimmeh !! ;D.... but they've got a Mitchell Johnson, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood and Peter Siddle, all of whom will be going to the West Indies plus Fawad Ahmed, the leg spinner ...

I think Simmons is right.
The Oz pace attack is better than England's. In addition they have a very good captain in Clarke.

Of course it is going to be a bigger test series. Australia is a better team than England and West Indies will be very lucky to get a draw in any of the matches they play.

Australia will win the series 2-0. But if WI can take any of the 2 tests into day 5 that would be a positive.
