9pm West Indies take 98 runs from the last ten overs and set New Zealand a target of 165. Shai Hope made 53 after a slow start. Chase made a 27-ball 28, in part owing to the brief rebuild they needed after the top three feel cheaply, but also struggled for long durations. Powell and the rest did enough to ensure WI went past 160. Duffy was spectacular, finishing with two wickets an an economy of 4.75. Foulkes blew cold and hot. Jamieson's return into the side continues to be smooth. Santner, though, was expensive as was Rachin in his lone over. We'll be back shortly. Remember, ESPNcricinfo's forecaster puts NZ as 65% favourites at the halfway mark

Eye of Sauron: "This is the 5th time in T20 internationals in New Zealand that Duffy has finished with an economy of 5 rpo or less while bowling 3 or more overs. Only one other pace bowler has done this more times in T20Is in NZ--Southee with 6. "

Duffy, 2 for 19: "Happy with that. Couple of wickets in the powerplay helped us."

Jamieson to Shepherd, FOUR, full ball on leg. Pace taken off. But Shepherd keeps a still head and whips the ball off his toes to send it behind fine leg. One-bounce four.

Jamieson to Holder, 1 run, yorker length on off. Driven to cover for a quick single. Mitchell takes aim at the bowler's end but misses. Would've been tight for certain

Jamieson to Holder, no run, cutter, exquisitely bowled. Full outside off and jagging away after pitching. Holder slogs across the line but he's through the shot way too early
