New Zealand Remove Hope as West Indies Reach 295-6 Chasing 531

With only Jacob Duffy plus Zak Foulkes fully fit, New Zealand have two sessions to find four wickets.

Overview

  • At lunch on the final day in Christchurch, West Indies were 295-6 needing 236 more to reach a target of 531.
  • Shai Hope fell for 140 after a 196-run stand with Justin Greaves, who remained 97 not out alongside Kemar Roach on 12.
  • Duffy broke the marathon partnership with the second new ball before Foulkes trapped Tevin Imlach lbw for four.
  • New Zealand’s attack was thinned by injuries, with Nathan Smith ruled out and Matt Henry restricted, leaving Duffy and Foulkes as the only fully fit pacers.
  • Hope had returned from an eye infection to produce a defiant century, following his 56 in the first innings, to keep the chase alive into Day 5.
