ADELAIDE, Australia (AFP): Australia made a clean sweep of their three match series against the West Indies with a seven-wicket victory over the tourists in the final cricket Test at Adelaide Oval on Tuesday. The Australians mopped up the required runs at 182 for three 16 minutes after lunch on the final day. Matthew Hayden remained unbeaten on 87 off 174 balls with first-innings centurion Mike Hussey not out 30. The pair guided Australia to victory in an unfinished 72-run partnership. West Indian batting superstar Brian Lara, who likely has played his last Test in Australia, was named man-of-the-match for his first innings 226 which made him Test cricket's all-time leading runscorer. Australian opening batsman Matthew Hayden was announced man-of-the-series for two centuries and his unbeaten 87 here Tuesday. Australia won the first Brisbane Test by 379 runs and the second Hobart Test by nine wickets to clinch the series ahead of the Adelaide Test. It was Australia's 12th win in their last 13 Tests with the West Indians stretching back to 1999. The West Indies have won only three of their last 21 Tests overall and three of their last 15 Tests against Australia stretching back to 1999. It was Australia's fifth straight series win in the Frank Worrell Trophy. The West Indies have not won a Test series against Australia since Richie Richardson's team won here in 1992-93. The Australians lost only the wicket of Brad Hodge in the morning session and had few problems as they steadily accumulated the runs needed to complete a series clean sweep. Dwayne Smith further enhanced his growing reputation as an exceptional fielder with a sensational diving catch in the gully to dismiss Hodge off Daren Powell. Hodge was unconvincing in his 65-ball knock for 23 as he put on 55 for the third wicket with Hayden to leave Australia chasing a further 72 runs for victory at 110 for three. Hussey on one was almost caught in another acrobatic dive by Fidel Edwards but the ball just flew past his fingers to the boundary. Umpires Billy Bowden and Aleem Dar, criticised for four questionable decisions that went against the West Indies on Monday's fourth day, called on West Indies captain Shivnarine Chanderpaul to temper his players' over-exuberant chatter. Bowden looked to have triggered the situation when he first spoke to Chanderpaul about players talking as Corey Collymore was running in to bowl. The tourists' response was to turn up the volume when motivating each other, which caused the umpires to intervene to calm the situation. The West Indies bowling attack had to do without outstanding all-rounder Dwayne Bravo, who was deputised in the field by Tino Best after a thigh strain suffered while batting in his topscoring 64 in Monday's second innings.
