As Hope Falls, New Zealand's Hopes Rise of a 1st-Test Win over the West Indies
New Zealand's weakened bowling attack ended a 186-run stand to get closer to a first-Test win, with Hope scoring 140 and Greaves nearing his second century.
- On Saturday, New Zealand national cricket team's makeshift attack broke the Hope–Greaves stand, with Shai Hope dismissed for 140, ending a 186-run partnership that frustrated New Zealand for almost three sessions.
- Injuries left New Zealand short of frontline bowlers, with Matt Henry and Nathan Smith out since the fourth day and Tom Blundell also sidelined with a hamstring problem.
- The pair batted through the early morning, adding 54 runs in the first hour and remaining untroubled even after New Zealand took the second new ball after 80 overs, with Jacob Duffy and Zak Foulkes having played only two previous Tests between them.
- Following the wickets, the West Indies were 295-6, trailing New Zealand by 235, with Kemar Roach 12 not out and Justin Greaves 97 at lunch.
- Duffy broke the partnership with a short ball that edged to Tom Latham, New Zealand wicketkeeper, and three overs later Zak Foulkes trapped Tevin Imlach lbw.
