Adelaide: Travis Head smashed a rapid 119 and Josh Hazlewood blew away the West Indies top order to put Australia on course for a comprehensive victory on Day 2 of the opening Test.

Hazlewood then produced a four-wicket burst to rock West Indies, who finished Day 2 on a precarious 73/6, still 22 behind and with a defeat inside three days looming large.
