SIR FRANK WORRELL TROPHY 20<br />

SYMONDS STARS IN CARIBBEAN TRIUMPH<br />

Australia absorbed multiple<br />

disruptions to win<br />

their recent Test series in<br />

the Caribbean 2-0.<br />

Andrew Symonds provided<br />

the consistency with<br />

the bat and Brett Lee and<br />

Stuart Clark with the ball<br />

as the visitors comfortably<br />

won the first and third<br />

Tests.<br />

The success was achieved<br />

despite the loss of Matthew<br />

Hayden on the eve<br />

of the series with an<br />

Achilles problem, and the<br />

retirement of Stuart<br />
