6:25pm: 105 runs scored in this session at a rate of 3.09 and the West Indies are hanging on - not going down without a fight - making New Zealand bowlers toil on the fourth day and bringing more life into this Test. The bowlers have been left frustrated and made to think hard. Hope remains unbeaten on 116 while Greaves has held his end of the bargain with an outstanding 55. It's been fabulous resistance but New Zealand will know that if they can open one end, they'll go all out to trigger a collapse. Not having the services of two of their key bowlers has definitely had an impact and worked in West Indies' favor. What an intriguing day's play! This game is deliciously poised and we'll be back tomorrow for the final day
