Been away all weekend and missed most of the last two days, anyway would rate us about 50:50 to bat this out from here. Hope we can go into second test still 0-0 and try somehow snaffle a win. Gonna have to improve a lot on this match tho, and perhaps make changesto th XI.

68 run lead with 59 overs (less 2 for the innings changeover) and three wickets in hand...looks very much to me that the Windies are in the box seat unless this partnership lasts a couple of hours.

Yeah, most definitely this is WI's best chance to win it from here.

These two need to bat for at least the next 20 overs. .

Didn't realise he'd had quite such a horrible run of form. Such a shame since he was arguably our best performing batsman during the Australian series last year.

I honestly thought it was about 50-50 at lunch. NZ realistically had to bat until tea - and score at a reasonable rate, around 2.5 an over - and WI had to take five wickets. The hour since lunch has been all one-way traffic. And the weather seems OK now after that earlier stoppage.

Hopefully Watling is fit enough to replace him in the next game.
