If I may make a tiny suggestion. Maybe put a bit more description into your updates as they are a bit factual, without really much description.
I think this ICC story by Griffo might be worth looking at. It won SOTM and is based on the same style as yours, however, he just does a wee bit more description. I think if you get that, make the text size 3 and use "bold" a bit more to highlight important facts, this has the potential to be the best ICC story to date.
Good luck

West Indies Had a very Bad start.O Brien Clean up Baugh. He was LBW for 19 and Edwards was Bowled for 10 The score was 7-361
Bravo bring up his Great 50 off 130 balls.
Sammy and Bravo started to build a great Partnership of 47,
As they push West Indies to 400.
New Zealand Tried every thing, nothing was working out, until O Brien Strikes yet again, as he got Bravo Caught by Fulton for 63.
New Zeland though they had West Indies now, it would be easy to get the final two wicket.
A Partnership between Sammy and Benn Change the thought, As New Zealand try there Best to get West Indies all Out before Lunch.
Both Sammy and Benn were on the move, as they move the Score from 408 to 443 in only 30mins, until Benn was bowled by Oram for 15.
New Zealand needed 1 wicket, Both Sammy and Taylor survive to Lunch

New Zealand come out to bat.
New Zealand start off Ok, as they play Denfesive. As West Indies Strikes.
J Taylor Bowled J How for 13.
NZ are now 28/1
50 Run up for New Zealand
Both Taylor and Fulton Play save as they Move NZ Pass 50 runs.
West Indies give S Benn and F Edwards the bowling now.
S Benn got a wicket.
R Taylor caught by Sarwan for 9.
NZ are now 54/2
New Zealand started to slip here.
As Taylor came back on the attack and got a wicket.
He got B MacCullum c Sammy for 3.
NZ are now 65/3
Fulton is still out there on 39. He should take the strike, and make sure no more wickets Fall.
Because at this rate NZ could be all out before 200.
Tea.
New Zealand have to Settle down now.
They are in a poor Position at the Moment.
68/3 Trail by 384.
With Fulton 41 and J Ryder out there. Both of these need to move up the score and try to get a great partnership here.
25 Over have been Bowled.
West Indies May feel good in this position.
But there is still alot of work to be done.
