West Indies in New Zealand

Re: West Indies in New Zealand

New Zealand won the toss and elected to bat in the first Twenty20 game.

McCullum is opening the batting with Ryder.
 
Re: West Indies in New Zealand

Edwards bowls Ryder with a fantastic ball. Ryder made 12 off 17.

West Indies 2/37 off 5.1 overs.

Edwards 1/0 (.1)
 
Re: West Indies in New Zealand

Oram gone for 13 to Benn who was bowled amazingly.

New Zealand 4/104 off 14.1 overs
Taylor 38*

Benn 1/14 (3.1)
 
Re: West Indies in New Zealand

New Zealand 4/110 off 15 overs

Benn finishes up with 1/20 off his 4 overs. Fantastic bowling from the spinner.
 
Re: West Indies in New Zealand

Gayle just took one of the best caught and bowled's i've ever seen. Franklin hit it as hard as he could back at Gayle who just bent down and caught it.

West Indies right on top of this game.
 
Re: West Indies in New Zealand

Jerome Taylor bowls Ross Taylor for a well made 63 off 50 balls.

New Zealand 6/142 off 18.3 overs. Flynn the not out batsman on 10.
 
Re: West Indies in New Zealand

New Zealand finish up with 7/155 off their 20 overs. A par score you'd think.

The pick of the bowlers were the two spinners Benn and Gayle. Benn took 1/20 off his 4 overs and Gayle got 2/16 off 3 overs.

This promises to be an entertaining second innings and if a couple of their batsmen get going then they will be in a good position to win the game.
 
Re: West Indies in New Zealand

Chanderpaul out caught and bowled by Mills for 6.

West Indies 1/19 off 2.1 overs. Gayle is off to a great start getting 13 off 8 so far.
 
Re: West Indies in New Zealand

West Indies 1/55 off 6 overs
Gayle 31* (18)
Marshall 18* (13)

Now the field goes back. Crucial stage for New Zealand, they need a couple of tight overs and some wickets.
 
Re: West Indies in New Zealand

Vettori gets Marshall for 28 off 24. New Zealand need more of that if they are going to win.

The West Indies need 73 off 64 with 8 wickets in hand.
 
Re: West Indies in New Zealand

Gayle is killing New Zealand. He's up to 66 off 38 balls with five 5's and five 6's.

The West Indies only need 47 off 42 balls. They should be able to do this comfortably.
