lol before the match Gayle was saying he wants the lower order to bat better. How about the middle order Chris?

Really top class catch there. had just over half a second to get his hands 30 cm above his head and take that. The west indies are in a bit of trouble now.

This is the result of the last Test played here: Cricinfo - 3rd Test: New Zealand v England at Napier, Mar 22-26, 2008
In this Test the first innings' scores were lower then the second innings. Maybe that's some indication to come.
And it's lunch by now at 74-4. Once again West Indies have to rely on Chanderpaul.

Jamie How is easily one of our best fielders. If not the best:cool:

1st session belongs to NZ,if they get 2-3 wickets in next session cheaply they have good chances of winning test here (though its too early to say,but the way they have played 1st session says that (at least for now)),a very good bowling performance here....
New Zealand all over the West Indies batsman like a rash. Chanderpaul is the key as always. The WI batting revolves around him.
Confirms my views that WI are horrible against spin bowling (Chanderpaul aside) and that they are impatient.
Patel was a great selection and has bowled fantastic. O'Brien has been in top form and has been bowling pretty quick too. He's really been putting the effort in. He's proven himself time and time again this year. What a spell of bowling. Vettori's wicket was a typical case of genius from himself throwing the ball up and attacking and what a catch at second slip from How.
NZ well on top. Hopefully that catch gives How some confidence and he can hit a hundred. Heck i'd even take a half century from him. Pitch looks a belter so no reason why he can't and NZ can't post a good score.
NZ catching and fielding (aside from the close run out throw) has been top class.

I was expecting Marshall to get out to spin bowling since he cant play it at all but I didn't expect it from the Guyana players. They are probably the best players of spin in the Caribbean but sucked it up big time in this test.

Not the guy who batted 2 hours to make 13 runs. Trouble is that patience is only any use if there's something to wait for.

Yeh, it doesn't matter how slow they are going atm. It's a valuable partnership. Chanderpaul is in top form.

congrats to both guys on their 50s, really good stuff. Nash maiden test 50. these guys need to play out the day.
well Nash is out but a great innings from him. 74 with 12 fours, some great shots he played and good support for Shiv just what the WI needed.
Not long left in the day, if Ramdin gets out he needs to go home right now no need to stay and play the rest of the tour.

and he gets out. boy does this guy suck, and the WI name him the VC. what a freaking disaster. leaves a straight ball, the 11th man could have played it better than him. bring in Fletcher to play the ODIs and send this guy to some academy or something like that.
and congrats to Shiv on another century. :happy
your the man shiv
