END OF OVER:
20 | 8 Runs 1 Wkt | NZ: 215/5 | RR: 10.75

  • Michael Bracewell4 (3b)
  • James Neesham9 (9b)
  • Romario Shepherd3-0-26-1
  • Odean Smith3-0-30-1

Here's the man of the moment, Glenn Phillips: West Indies made it tough early on and to get to 215 was great. Our blueprint is a simple one as we take on things, the way we induce it. The way Devon (Conway) takes on Hayden (Walsh) and the way I take on the pacers . It was a little slower today, so hopefully we can do that as well. The slower balls are going to be key and hopefully Santner, Ish and Bracewell can get something out of it.

3:13pm Just eight runs off the final over but that does not stop New Zealand from piling on 215 for 5. This is the highest total on this ground and the highest total by a visiting team in the Caribbean. West Indies started well with Obed McCoy removing Kane Williamson and Martin Guptill in an over but Glenn Phillips was brutal during his 41-ball 76 alongside Daryl Mitchell who smashed a 20-ball 48. West Indies were all over the place and it will take something exceptional for them to chase this total down.

Shepherd to Bracewell, 1 bye, Banged in short, Bracewell is through his pull and does not connect as they take a bye.
19.5

Shepherd to Bracewell, FOUR, Slower length outside off, and Bracewell simply opens the face of the bat and guides it past point for a four. What thinking!
19.4

Shepherd to Neesham, 1 run, yorker on middle stump, Neesham is deep in crease but still can only jam it to mid-off

Shepherd to Bracewell, 1 leg bye, Slower short ball around the hip area, looks for the pull, can only collect a leg bye

Michael Bracewell comes in

19.2
W
Shepherd to Mitchell, OUT, Changes the angle and gets his man! Gets this one full and on the base of legstump. Mitchell had walked across a bit too much looking to heave it away. He misses and finds his stumps in a mess. Nevertheless, an excellent knock by the allrounder.

Shepherd to Neesham, 1 run, Banged in short on leg, he pulls and for all money it is going to the square leg fence but Walsh dives full-length to his left, intercepts and keeps it to a run.

Romario Shepherd to bowl the final over. An extra fielder has to come in as they have been penalized for slow over rate.

Smith to Neesham, 1 run, Goes full and wide, probably what he was trying the previous ball. Neesham cannot get under it and mistimes the length ball all along the ground to long off

Smith to Neesham, FOUR, 200 up for NZ! Another misfield and this one costs them four runs. Back of a length ball around middle, he pulls it to Hetmyer at midwicket who lets it through his legs and concedes extra runs.

Odean Smith comes on now, over the wicket

McCoy to Mitchell, SIX, TONKED! In the slot for Mitchell outside off and he has enough room to extend his arms and slam it over Hetmyer stationed at long-on for another half a dozen. That was right in the arc for the batter.

Vishnu: "McCoy, Neesham, Mitchell.. the Royal show!"

17.5
1lb
McCoy to Neesham, 1 leg bye, Off-pace short ball again, that hits Neesham around the rib cage as he looks to fend it away. They take a leg-bye.

McCoy to Neesham, no run, Rolls his finger on the length ball as Neesham, pushes it to the left of the bowler.

James Neesham comes in. Expect some fireworks. Also, don't forget, those in the US can watch the match live on live on ESPN+.

McCoy to Phillips, OUT, The fun is over. Third wicket for McCoy. Back of a length outside off, Phillips cuts it hard but is hitting against the wind and can only find deep cover, who takes a simple catch.

GD Phillips c Powell b McCoy 76 (70m 41b 4x4 6x6) SR: 185.36

McCoy to Phillips, SIX, Some hitting this! Over-pitched outside off, Phillips sets himself such a solid base that allows himself to stay still and slam it straight over the bowler's head.
