Thoughts on West Indies bowled out for just 27 runs?

That collapse in Kingston was honestly hard to believe. West Indies getting bowled out for 27 runs in a single session by Australia was one of the most shocking things I've seen in Test cricket recently. Were the conditions really that bad, or is this a deeper reflection on how bad West Indies batting has gotten? Would love to hear your thoughts—is this rock bottom, or can things actually get worse from here?

I think it's a mix of both poor batting and some great bowling. Starc's spell was incredible but the West Indies looked lost and low on confidence. They didn't fight at all.

It's hard to see West Indies recovering quickly. They need big changes in selection and mindset. You can't have this many collapses and expect things to stay the same.

Honestly as a Windies supporter, I just want to see them play fearless cricket even if it means failing. At least then there's purpose and intent rather than this scared approach.

Sometimes these collapses happen on tough pitches but 27 is truly shocking. It might be rock bottom for them and hopefully it wakes up the board and the fans.

The fact that West Indies have had low scores multiple times lately suggests deeper problems. Their domestic system is not producing Test-quality batters right now.
