The Nz team has arrived at Kingston with two news making the headlines

the big one being Lara has sustained a foot injury and whether he will make it to the eleven is a million dollar question.

The weather in Jamaica is bad with rains lashing the ground for past 2 days.

Here is a small interview of Nz captain Fleming:

The News reporter " Well Stephen not a geat start to the weak with rains lashing ur hope of practice"

Stephen: " Well we have been doing well by winning the practice matches however we need to start practicing and being indors for 2 days is ya quite boring. Hopefully weather will clearly with three days remaining"

Reporter " Ur selection policy"

Stephen " Well we havent decided yet depends on the pitch we have been given"

Reporter " Abt Laras injury and all those stuf that been created"

Stephen " Ya the media creating a lot of hype and i think he is a great player and will definitely recover from this. Hope we will play a full side WI team"

Reporter " Thanks stephen for ur comments"

This is the situation in Jamaica before the start of the series.

Ian Smith: i am happy that everything is ready and fine

Tony cozier: lets go and join bishop for the pitch report


Ian Bishop: Well a very good morning mates the pitch looks a fine one

inspite of rain because of the excellent drainage facilities of the

[The Champ]

West Indies begin their 1st innings poorly with them being beaten poorly outside the off stump by both Bond and Cairns.

Luckily for the Windies the Nz bowling was very inconsistent with lots of wides with went for 4 byes several times.

But everything has to end so did the inconsistency of Nz bowling and cairns Produced the perfect offcutter to dismiss Gayle caught at slips FOW - 19

 

[The Champ]

Sarwan joined joseph in the middle and moved a inch further before bond dismissed Joseph caught at slips. FOW _ 19/2


Brian Lara walked to a standing ovation as seen below

 

[The Champ]

Lara walked in to rousing ovation and looked out of sorts in his stayat the middle.

Sarwan at the other end played a gorgeous straight drive of bond. But his end came soon, caught at slips playing a poor shot- FOW - 60-3 and Chanderpaul joined lara.

Chanderpaul looked in good composure but lara struggled for timing as shown below beaten by Vettori.

 

[The Champ]

Everyone where shocked when the scored reached 87 just before drinks when lara got a peach of a delivery from bond curved in the air to be bowled,

Everyone were awe struck, but the Kiwis were cock-a-hoop at this stage .

FOW - 87 / 4 WI in trouble at drinks break with Chanderpaul and smith at crease.

Ridley Jacobs absent wil be felt as he suffering a injury and only return for 3rd test.

End of day 1

Tony Cozier: Rain has ruined most of the days plays but seeing the batting display of the WI we can say they themselves were the culprit.

Score : WI 161 all out, NZ 0/1 ur thoughts on this guys.

Ian smith: Well WI have batted poorly and u must give credit to Nz for the way they bowled. But WI fought back with a wkt though.

Ian Bishop: I hope the sun comes out tommorow and so does their own work which is cut out .

So that its for the day guys let hope to see a full days play tommorrow.
