Four overs prior, Cummins gave a chance on 7 but the ball fell short of Brathwaite in the deep off Shamar Joseph's bowling.
The Australian captain reached his 28 off 18 balls, which included a six and four off Seales' bowling.

The send off from Seales was ruled to have breached article 2.5 of the ICC's code of conduct which relates to 'using language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batter upon his/her dismissal during an international match'.
Seales has also had one demerit point added to his record for his second offence in a 24-month period. When a player receives four or more demerit points, they are turned into suspension points. Two suspension points leads to a ban from one Test or two ODIs or T20Is.
The ICC's statement said Seales admitted to the offence against Cummins.
