Starc picked the ball and threw down stumps with a diving Chanderpaul marginally short of ground. <br \/>In his next over, Starc had Holder caught behind for a four-bal duck. <br \/>Joshua Da Silva made 23 and Roston Chase (34) added 43 runs with Marquino Mindley to take West Indies past the 200-mark before they were all out. <br \/>Nathan Lyon picked 3-57 for Australia who fielded a depleted attack sans skipper Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood &#8212; both recovering from injuries. <br \/>Australia were predictably aggressive when they came out to begin their second innings. <br \/>Usman Khawaja (45) added 77 runs with <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/david-warner\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" data-ga=\"within_article-topic_link|topic_david-warner\" frmappuse=\"1\">David Warner<\/a> (28) before Roston Chase removed both. <br \/>Marnus Labuschagne made 31, his first sub-100 score of the series, while stand-in captain <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/steve-smith\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" data-ga=\"within_article-topic_link|topic_steve-smith\" frmappuse=\"1\">Steve Smith<\/a> (35) and Travis Head (38 not out) also produced breezy cameos. <br \/>Scott Boland ripped the heart out of the West Indies top order claiming three wickets in his first over. <br \/>He dismissed West Indies captain Kraigg Brathwaite caught behind with his first delivery, trapped Shamarh Brooks lbw with his third, and had Jermaine Blackwood caught in gully with his sixth. <br \/>Starc dismissed Chanderpaul caught behind for 17 and Australia would be hoping to wrap up victory early on Sunday. <\/div>\n<p><script>!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n                  window.TimesApps = window.TimesApps || {};\n                  const { TimesApps } = window;\n                  TimesApps.loadFBEvents = function() {\n                    (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n                      if (f.fbq) return;\n                      n = f.fbq = function() {\n                        n.callMethod ?
