Looks like the pitch flattened out. WI at least going down fighting.

[Arthur Crabtree]

WI still scrapping through the morning session.

Wow what on earth happened here??? Double hundred for Greaves?! Outstanding from the windies full credit to them

[Arthur Crabtree]

Yes well done WI. Including Roach's 4.5 hours rearguard.

West indies batting first in the second test off to a good start, 66-0 after 16 overs

[Arthur Crabtree]

Wicket down now.

Some major lineup changes!

[mikesiva]

West Indies 205 all out

Hope 48
Campbell 44

Tickner 4-32
Rae 3-67

Real shame for the windies who made a good start! New Zealand's horror run of injuries continued with Blair tucker going off with a dislocated shoulder, so NZ a bowler down again

[mikesiva]

That was a horrific injury.

New Zealand 278 all out

Hay 61
Conway 60

Phillip 3-70
Roach 2-43

It's been a decent effort this series for the Windies, but if you want to continue to improve they have to stop carrying passengers in the team.

Roston Chase is batting like a tailender and bowling like a drain. I don't care if he's the best captain ever, struggling teams can't play with 10 men. He's not scored a century in 6-7 years!!! He should be nowhere near international cricket

[Arthur Crabtree]

Well done Jacob Duffy for the 5-fer. And NZ for the win when they had so many bowlers missing.

[mikesiva]

West Indies 128 all out

Hodge 35

Duffy 5-38
Rae 3-43

New Zealand 57-1

Conway 28*

Phillip 1-17

I agree about Chase. His place in the Test side is difficult to justify.

[andy]

I wonder if shai hopes resurgence continues then they may give him the captaincy across formats?
