Thanks Sreshth. Conway and Latham are all kitted up, waiting just beyond the boundary line. Will they try to rush to the target? Or is it slow and steady? I suspect they'll just play it steady. There's runs on this pitch just playing normally. Kemar Roach with the new ball. Immediately around the wicket to the two left-hand batters

Rachel: "How good for Duffy!! Hope the limo is being booked for the Southern lads in the bowling attack. "

Logan: "Conflicted at the moment. Ecstatic that the Black Caps are showing depth in our bowling. Bummed out that the game will probably end today so I don't get to spend the weekend at the Basin"

2.36pm Be back with the chase shortly. Do NZ wrap it up before tea?! Just under an hour left in the session and the batters will be facing the hard, new ball. On the other side, we'll have Alagappan

2.33pm As Duffy walks off with the innings ball and soaks in the applause, it caps a West Indian batting display they'd rather forget. Seven single-digit scores, a top score of just 35, and only two players reaching the 20s - all on a surface that wasn't offering anywhere near the assistance of the first two days. The Brandon King run-out that sparked the collapse was a gut-punch, draining whatever momentum WI had in their push for a competitive total. Rae backed up his first-innings three-for with another trio of wickets, and New Zealand ultimately didn't feel the absence of the injured Tickner.

Pete Pete: "@ Dave.. I agree with you re Southee, he was way past his best for the last couple of years while the likes of Duffy, Rae and Tickner had to wait until their 30's to get a chance"

Hugh : "Did you manage to track down the stats regarding Michael Rae's first scoring shot in test cricket being a 5?" -- yes, I did actually. Since we have full ball-by-ball data, it's only Naeem Islam of Bangladesh and Ben Hilfenhaus of Australia who did the same in Tests. Reece Topley in ODIs

Tom: "@Caleb, more test matches against the top sides is exactly what the BC's need. Would rather see more test cricket getting played by NZ even if it meant players averages will down"

Michael Rae Fan: "Great bowling display on display from the Black Caps, shout out to Alex Caruso." - #HeadbandSupremacy

Solomon: "@Caleb NZ always wants to test themselves against the best. That's why we play. We aren't scared of playing any of the big teams!"

Caleb: "@Gareth, be careful what you wish for! More tests for NZ would inevitably mean more tests v Aus, Ind, and Eng, against whom Williamson averages much much less than his whole career!" -- A three-Test series against WI (this series) is a pleasant change from the two-Test shootouts NZ have been so used to these days

Theo: "As a proud South Islander (from Otago, no less) it's great to see two Southern men dominate this innings with their bowling. Can't think of the last NZ lineup that would've been like that"

Gareth: "I know it's a cliche, but it's become a cliche because it's true: Imagine what Williamson could have achieved if NZ bothered to play more tests."

Andrew H: "Thanks for he great updates @Sreshth. Poor old WI, would really like to watch Roach and Seales get to clubbing! " -- they're running out of batters now...

Dave: "...and as Duffy's average continues in the teens, you wonder about the 2 years we clung on to Southee as he lifted his average into the thirties..."
