The West Indies cricket team has promised to be more competitive at the traditional Boxing Day test against Australia after they came under fire following an abysmal start to their tour. The Windies face an uphill task as they seek to prevent hosts Australia from taking an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-test series. Coming off a three-day trouncing in the opening test in Hobart, the tourists are set to make their first appearance at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in 15 years. Touring captain Jason Holder said he was aware of the history and the significance of playing the Boxing Day test match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, and promised a much improved performance from his bruised and battered team.
