The Australian Cricket Board (ACB) opted for only one specialist spinner in the 15-man squad -- vice-captain Shane Warne. Former Test players Tom Moody and Paul Reiffel make their return, but there was no room for dynamic opener Michael Slater or middle-order batsman Greg Blewett.

Team: Steve Waugh (captain), Shane Warne (vice-captain), Michael Bevan, Adam Dale, Damien Fleming, Adam Gilchrist, Brendon Julian, Shane Lee, Darren Lehmann, Glenn McGrath, Damien Martyn, Tom Moody, Ricky Ponting, Paul Reiffel, Mark Waugh.

Dale scalps six

ST JOHN'S: An exceptional spell of swing and seam bowling from Adam Dale gave Australia an emphatic 154-run victory over West Indies A yesterday.

The Queensland medium-pacer claimed six for 66, as the `A' team, resuming at 249 for three and needing 465 for an unlikely victory, collapsed to 310 all out.

Woolmer eyes World Cup

NAPIER: Bob Woolmer's career as a Test coach may be over for now but South Africa's bid to win the World Cup is occupying every minute of his time. Woolmer's five years at the helm comes to an end after the World Cup.

There are speculations he may be offered England's coaching job after David Lloyd's impending retirement. ``I won't make any decisions until after the World Cup and then my biggest priority is some rest and recuperation,'' Woolmer said.
