- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.5 and that proves to be a rather tame way to go out as Guptill slaps this back of a length delivery straight to short cover, who will not make a mess of it as Johnson Charles holds on to the chance. West Indies finally get one, as the run rate threatened to get away from them early on 38/16.4 full from Miller as Ryder hits this too well straight down the throat of long-on, who takes his second catch of the day. This is all met by silence from the crowd, as Ryder trudges off, probably ruing his most recent shot selection 56/28.6 length ball on middle which gets a leading edge as this bobbles straight to Bravo at short cover, who won't make a hash of this one. New Zealand now three down 66/312.2 this one rushes onto Munro as he is forced into an early pull shot which goes straight up. Fletcher, the wicketkeeper, calls this one straightaway, and is able to hold on to the chance 103/412.5 Anderson unfortunately will not make his mark today as he pulls this back of a length delivery straight to the man at deep square leg. Best is super pumped after that wicket 104/5Extras7 (b 5, nb 1, w 1)TOTAL189/5 (20 Overs, RR: 9.45)Fall of wickets: 1-38 (Martin Guptill, 3.5 ov), 2-56 (Jesse Ryder, 6.4 ov), 3-66 (Ross Taylor, 8.6 ov), 4-103 (Colin Munro, 12.2 ov), 5-104 (Corey Anderson, 12.5 ov)
- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.3 137 kph, looks to hammer this one down the leg side, but Charles succeeds instead of getting an inside edge which carries low to Ronchi to his left to take a good catch. Neesham didn't seem too animated as he celebrated that one. West Indies lose their openers in quick time 31/21.4 150 kph, beaten by pace here as Simmons looks to hit this through extra-cover, but instead succeeds in getting an edge to the keeper, who doesn't make a mess of it 11/110.1 Mattress gets a wicket as Fletcher goes for the big hit down the leg side, but instead gets this to travel over long-off for an easy catch for Jesse Ryder 59/48.3 steps down to try and loft him over extra-cover, but hits this straight up, with Guptill able to get under it near deep extra-cover to hold onto the chance 53/312.5 anything you can do, I can do better. I can do everything better than you. That is probably what is going through Ryder's mind as he runs at full tilt to the right to take a good snap at the long-off boundary. Bravo looking to clear NMac down the ground, but don't underestimate Ryder, who despite his bulky appearance seems quite mobile in the field 75/610.6 Russell decides to tee off but Guptill denies him at long-on to take a magnificent catch just before the boundary. Shows off his hang time as he times the jump perfectly. The NZ fielders run over to him as Guptill 64/513.3 Walton looking to be aggressive as he attempts a paddle flick. but hits it straight to Munro at backward square. West Indies look down for the count at 77 for 7 77/713.5 and Narine doesn't bother the scorers as he lofts this straight to long-off with a good change of pace delivery.
