Thanks Sreshth. Cracking morning for New Zealand. They've held their length well but no doubt they've benefitted from that initial breakthrough coming from out of nowhere. No wickets for half an hour. Three since the start of the 18th. Here's Justin Greaves, fresh off a special double-hundred in the last match
On that note, we'll take drinks. Let's welcome Alagappan

Duffy to Chase, OUT, Umpire raises his finger! Roston Chase reviews. The change of ends has worked for Duffy, and the pick of the NZ bowlers has added a second wicket to his name. This was a back of a length ball in the corridor of uncertainty. The rising delivery is met by Chase trying to tiptoe and defend off the back foot. It flies into the keeper's gloves and the appeal is met with a raised finger. But did Chase get any bat on that? That's the million-dollar question...yes, a thin edge, a clear spike, and West Indies lose their fifth, still training by three runs.
