Andrew Alderson: Black Caps' mass changes make hay at the Basin Reserve

  • WELLINGTON, Dec 10 — New Zealand cricket team dismissed West Indies cricket team for 205 and were 24 without loss at stumps, while Blair Tickner, seam bowler, was stretchered off with a left shoulder injury.
  • After New Zealand won the toss and elected to bowl, the West Indies made a 66-0 start before Tickner and debutant Michael Rae exploited a hardening pitch to trigger a collapse from 175-4 to all out.
  • Tickner produced a match-defining spell, finishing with four for 32 from 16 overs while Shai Hope top-scored with 48, supported by John Campbell’s 44 and Brandon King’s 33.
  • Devon Conway and Tom Latham, captain, will resume on Thursday at 16* and 7* to reduce an 181-run deficit, while Tickner’s shoulder injury leaves him unlikely to play further.
  • The series context shows the first Test was drawn, with the West Indies entering the second Test after batting more than 12 hours to reach 457-6 chasing 531; the third and final Test begins on December 18 in Mount Maunganui.
