- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.1 goes straight up, and Conway does the rest! Banged into the track on off stump, and this seems to zip through. Hope wants to hack this over cow corner but makes a complete mess of the stroke. The ball skews up off the top edge and swirls and swirls. Thankfully for NZ, Conway has the gloves on, and he tracks the ball all the way into his mitts. WI lose their skipper! 20/21.2 popped back to the bowler, and Jamieson uses his frame to hold on! Length on middle and leg, and this seems to just stop in the surface. A bit of shape back in too and Athanaze, trying to punch it down the ground, cloths it towards Jamieson. He leaps a little, gets both of his hands up over his head and snaffles up the chance. Early success for Jamieson and NZ! 12/12.3 leg stump out of the ground, and Duffy has another! This is a sizzler. Starting on a full length on middle stump and swerving back in devilishly. Auguste tries to flick it away but is too late on the stroke, perhaps beaten by the movement and beaten for pace. The ball bursts through the gap, and West Indies in a spot of bother now! 21/311.6 edged and Chase's resistance has been snapped! Short outside off and this is there to be hit. Chase feels as much too, and gives it the lot. Seems to be a tad late on the stroke, though, and he feathers it through to Conway. Chase is disappointed and livid with himself as he walks off. Vital, vital wicket for the hosts and WI, just as they were building momentum, have been pegged back again! 90/62.5 nicked and gone! WI four down, and Duffy has three in the over! This is, well, a fairly ordinary shot. Duffy slants it across on a length outside off. Rutherford hares down the track and swings at it rather wildly. Loses his shape completely and all he manages in the end is a snick through to Conway. Not a shot he would want to look back on fondly, and WI sink further into trouble! 21/46.2 Powell goes for another big shot, and this time, he bites the dust! Well, that will have to be put down under the reckless category too. Bracewell tosses it up on a length wide outside off. Powell charges and looks to go inside-out. Slices across it a little too much, though, and the ball spoons up for Chapman to do the rest at sweeper cover. WI five down, and this partnership, promising a resurgence, has been snapped! 48/512.4 sliced straight to backward point, and Sodhi among the wickets too! Not the best ball Sodhi has ever bowled, or will ever bowl, but this gets the job done. Short and wide. Holder thinks he can carve this behind point. Does not get under it completely, though, nor does he get on top of the bounce. Tame chip to Neesham, and WI are now seven down! 92/717.5 in the air again, and taken this time! Hard length outside off and Shepherd wants to repeat the dose from earlier in the over. He swings at it with all his might but shanks this terribly. Off the bottom part of the blade and the ball swirls towards long on, where Neesham runs in and does the rest. Shepherd departs after a brisk cameo, and that has taken WI to the brink of 140! 137/913.5 miscued a mile up, and Neesham tears in from long on to complete the catch! Another zippy arm-ball, pitching on a back of a length just outside off and coming in. Forde wants to hoick this over cow corner but is done in by the extra pace and skid. The ball floats off the leading edge and Neesham gobbles up the chance, just inside the ring and where mid on is usually situated. WI eight down! 94/818.4 Seales tries to go big, and he only finds Mitchell in the ring! Full just outside off. Seales, with mid off up, fancies his chances, but comes up second-best. Right off the toe-end and Mitchell, circling to his right from mid off, sends Seales packing. West Indies bowled out for 140, and bundled out with eight balls remaining in their innings! 140/10Extras6 (lb 2, w 4)TOTAL140 all out (18.4 Overs, RR: 7.5)Fall of wickets: 1-12 (Alick Athanaze, 1.2 ov), 2-20 (Shai Hope, 2.1 ov), 3-21 (Ackeem Auguste, 2.3 ov), 4-21 (Sherfane Rutherford, 2.5 ov), 5-48 (Rovman Powell, 6.2 ov), 6-90 (Roston Chase, 11.6 ov), 7-92 (Jason Holder, 12.4 ov), 8-94 (Matthew Forde, 13.5 ov), 9-137 (Romario Shepherd, 17.5 ov), 10-140 (Jayden Seales, 18.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.1 and Shepherd among the wickets straightaway! Seems like a bit of an off-cutter, pitching on a length outside off and deviating into Robinson. Robinson advances, trying to go downtown but is beaten by the lack of pace (and of course the movement). Has a fresh-air shot and hears the rattling of the stumps soon after. WI finally have a wicket, but has the damage already been done? 69/111.5 soft, soft dismissal! Wide half-volley and this is there to be hit. Ravindra looks to go inside-out but cannot get under it enough. Chips it straight to Rutherford at extra cover, who indulges in a bit of a bobble but recovers enough to ensure the chance is not grassed. Ravindra trudges off, and WI have what, at this point, seems like a bit of a consolation! 106/2Extras7 (lb 3, nb 1, w 3)TOTAL141/2 (15.4 Overs, RR: 9)Fall of wickets: 1-69 (Tim Robinson, 7.1 ov), 2-106 (Rachin Ravindra, 11.5 ov)
