Aus vs WI, 1st Test, Hobart: Day One in pictures

Left-arm spinner Jomel Warrican took two top-order wickets and fast bowler Shannon Gabriel took an early one, but those seemed to be the only highs for West Indies in an otherwise one-sided day. Adam Voges and Shaun Marsh scored centuries and Australia piled on runs at a quick rate to finish at 438 for 3 at stumps on Day One.
