refreshSo, that concludes a proper Test match. A thoroughly enjoyable five days of Test cricket come to an end. The three-Test series starts with a draw. Join us on the 10th of this month for the second match. It begins at 10 pm GMT (the previous day). You can join us earlier for the build up. Till then, bye-bye.
West Indies skipper, Roston Chase is happy to secure their first points on the board, which he considered a good feeling despite not achieving a win. He described Justin Greaves' effort as Herculean and voiced his pride for him, noting that he has played with Greaves for years. Chase states that he was really happy for Kemar Roach, who came back strongly. He admitted that after the Tea interval, he thought they could have pushed for a win, but the batters were not keen on it. Feels very proud of the boys overall. He praises Hope for carrying great form from the Indian tour, recognizing him as a great player in ODIs and T20Is who has now shown his class in red-ball cricket. Chase believes the result will instill confidence going into the second match.
Tom Latham, the skipper of New Zealand, says it was the match that had it all, noting that his team had put themselves in a position to win before the contest went down to the final hour with all three results possible. He expressed disappointment that they were unable to secure the final wickets or capitalize on the opportunities presented. Latham acknowledged the unfortunate circumstance of two pacers going down to injury, but praised the rest of the attack for stepping up, specifically mentioning that Jacob Duffy and Zakary Foulkes never complained and bowled exceptionally well, alongside Michael Bracewell, who delivered over 50 overs. States the West Indies played incredibly well. Regarding the DRS, he emphasized the importance of having reviews remaining at the end, though recognizing it as a point of learning. Mentions that the bowlers would be resting for the next few days and that the team would look for replacements for the injured players in preparation for the next match. Latham expresses pleasure in getting runs himself and spending time at the crease, and lauds Rachin Ravindra's beautiful batting performance.
Justin Greaves wins the PLAYER OF THE MATCH AWARD. Greaves states that being there at the end was important. He described it as a special day for both himself and the team. Tells that to come to the venue, bat all day, and achieve a positive result after losing Shai Hope was significant. Greaves mentioned they had initially been aiming for a win, but as the senior player, he followed Kemar Roach's advice. He also noted that the coaches had instructed him to stay in once he was settled, and that Rachin Ravindra's performance demonstrated the quality of the pitch, which they then used as a guide. Greaves shares that it was a good day overall and was ecstatic to be a part of history. The team's original plan was to get into the final session needing 100 runs with a few wickets in hand, and he concluded that they performed well in the end. Greaves ends by applauding Kemar Roach as legendary, saying Roach had inspired him since he joined the team, and expressed happiness that Roach was back after missing the last couple of series.
...Presentation...
Kemar Roach survived twice on 53, where an lbw and a caught behind decision were given not out, and New Zealand were out of reviews. Justin Greaves also survived a run out chance. But more than luck it was about hard work and West Indies were rewarded with a Draw. Before the final session of Day 5, West Indies pushed really hard for the win and they were in a great position but batting for more than 5 hours, it took a toll on both the batters and West Indies settled with a draw.
On a thrilling final day, the West Indies refused to surrender, turning a massive run chase into a nail-biting drama. While the heroic Shai Hope fell for 140 and Tevin Imlach followed quickly in the morning, Justin Greaves stood firm to keep the dream alive. Greaves marched on to score a brilliant 150, finding an unexpected ally in veteran Kemar Roach, who chipped in with a crucial fifty. The pair frustrated the New Zealand bowlers by surviving the entire afternoon session without losing a wicket, punishing dropped catches and brave bowling.
At the start of Day 4, New Zealand continued to bat and ended their innings at 466/8. It was effectively a declaration due to injuries to Tom Blundell and Nathan Smith, setting a daunting lead of 530. Chasing a mammoth target of 531, the West Indies crumbled after a steady start, losing four quick wickets in the post-lunch session. Jacob Duffy was the wrecking ball with a double strike, supported by Henry and Bracewell, leaving the visitors reeling. Later, a defiant 140-run partnership between centurion Shai Hope and Justin Greaves halted the collapse. Both batted the entire final session without losing a wicket, setting the stage for an exciting finish on the final day.
Day 3 turned into a nightmare for the West Indies and a dream for the Kiwis. Tom Latham and Rachin Ravindra combined for a monumental partnership that crushed the visitors' spirits. Latham played with surgical precision to reach his 14th century, while Ravindra punished the bowlers after his early reprieves, blazing his way to a massive 176. The duo put on 279 runs together, rendering the West Indies attack harmless. By the time stumps were drawn, New Zealand had amassed a gigantic lead of 481 runs, leaving the West Indies hoping for a declaration rather than another day in the field.
The momentum seemed to swing wildly on Day 2. The West Indies' reply started disastrously with John Campbell falling to the very first ball he faced. Matt Henry was lethal, reducing the visitors to 10/2 before Shai Hope and Tagenarine Chanderpaul showed immense grit to stabilize the innings. However, by the time Day 3 arrived, the narrative had shifted entirely in New Zealand's favor during their second innings. After a few early wobbles where Conway and Williamson fell, the West Indies' discipline evaporated, and the fielders let chances slip through their fingers, dropping Rachin Ravindra twice early in his innings.
What a game of cricket we have witnessed here at Hagley Oval! It began as a battle for survival under cloudy skies. After winning the toss, the West Indies unleashed their bowlers, capitalizing on the conditions immediately as Kemar Roach sent Devon Conway back for a duck. While Kane Williamson and Tom Latham tried to steady the ship, the West Indies bowlers, led by Justin Greaves and Ojay Shields, chipped away consistently. New Zealand suffered a middle-order collapse, sliding from a comfortable position to a precarious one. However, some late-order resistance dragged their first innings total to 231, a score that looked modest but competitive one.
Phew! What a final day it was! No one saw it would be scripted like this. But before we recap the game, an appreciation for the Kiwi bowling department as well. They were handicapped coming into the final innings. They missed Tom Blundell, Matt Henry and Nathan Smith due to different injuries. Matt Henry and Nathan Smith, who could have been so valuable on the final day, defending more than 500, couldn't help the team and Tom Latham had to rely on the available options to get a result.
Courage, determination and strength! These are the words that could perfectly describe the innings from Justin Greaves and Kemar Roach. A phenomenal marathon effort from these two. Kemar Roach and Justin Greaves walk off the field, and Roach gives way for Greaves to lead the way. Even a player like Kemar Roach knows how important Greaves's innings was. Justin Greaves 202(388), Kemar Roach 58(233). This will be remembered forever and will go down as one of the great efforts to save the match.

Welcome back for the final session of Day 5. What a game of cricket we have had so far. We are in the final session and all 3 results are possible. The umpires and the players are out in the middle. Justin Greaves and Kemar Roach will resume their innings. Jacob Duffy will start with the ball. Let's go...
... DAY 5, SESSION 3 ...
New Zealand are in a lot of doubt. Without their prime bowler, Matt Henry, they are facing a big dilemma of how to find a wicket. Tom Latham has shuffled Rachin Ravindra and Michael Bracewell, while giving short bursts of spells to Jacob Duffy and Zakary Foulkes, who stuck to short-ball ploys but none have worked in their favour. They created three chances in this session. Kemar Roach was dropped on 31 and 47, both gettable chances, while Justin Greaves survived a run out scare. As things stand, West Indies have a good chance of pushing for victory, but New Zealand know they are one wicket away from opening the floodgates for them. Stay tuned for the final session of the game.
Session Summary - 104 runs in 29 overs. A WICKETLESS SESSION! West Indies have turned hope into belief with an incredible session going their way. West Indies need 132 more runs to make history and the way things are going, we could be in for some truly great Test moments.

We are all set for the action to begin. The umpires and the players are out in the middle. Shai Hope and Justin Greaves will resume their innings. Rachin Ravindra to start with the ball. Let's go...
The first hour of play will be absolutely critical, as the second new ball is just a few overs away. If the Kiwis can make the new ball talk, they should be able to close out the match comfortably. However, if Hope and Greaves can negotiate that period and continue scoring against a tired attack, we might just be looking at a record-breaking run chase. Stay tuned as we get ready for an exciting finish.
For New Zealand, the challenge is not just the opposition but their own depleted resources. With Tom Blundell and Nathan Smith already ruled out, the hosts suffered another blow with Matt Henry going down with a calf strain. This leaves them with only two fully fit seamers in Jacob Duffy and Zak Foulkes, meaning the spinners will have to shoulder a heavy workload today to break this stubborn partnership.
The spotlight this morning is firmly on Shai Hope and Justin Greaves, who combined brilliantly to frustrate the Kiwi bowlers. Hope played some sumptuous shots to bring up a well-deserved fourth Test century, finding a perfect partner in Greaves, who contributed a gritty fifty. Their unbeaten 140-run stand has been built on solid defense and calm aggression, giving the West Indies a glimmer of belief on a pitch that has become quite flat.
Hello and welcome to the fifth and final day of this gripping Test match. We have arrived at a fascinating stage after a spirited fightback from the visitors yesterday. Chasing a massive target of 531, the West Indies have displayed excellent mentality to push this game into the last day. The equation is clear, the visitors need another 319 runs to win, while New Zealand requires just six wickets to seal the victory.
... DAY 5, SESSION 1 ...
Despite being under pressure throughout the day, Justin Greaves and Shai Hope have done an incredible job of taking the game on the final day, with the latter raising his hundred as well. New Zealand looked a bit tired in the final session. They won't mind this partnership but will hope to bring a lot of energy on the final day. Matt Henry suffered a calf strain today and his absence proved pivotal. New Zealand will look for his presence as they'll back their pacers to break this partnership. All three results are possible. Join us for the action of the final day at 10 pm GMT (previous day). Join us an hour earlier for the build-up. Till then, cheers!
The script flipped dramatically after the break as the Kiwi attack came out firing on all cylinders. Jacob Duffy was the standout performer to find the outside edge of both openers, while spin and pace combined to remove Athanaze and skipper Roston Chase cheaply. Amidst the carnage, Shai Hope stood tall as a lone warrior, looking completely untroubled as he brought up a fighting fifty. Joined by a solid Justin Greaves, Hope steered the ship to Tea, but with the score reading four down and over 400 runs still needed, the visitors remained in a perilous position.
Day 4 began with a colossal task ahead for the West Indies at Hagley Oval, staring down a massive target after New Zealand’s innings effectively ended at 466/8 due to injuries. While the hosts set a daunting lead of 530 runs, veteran pacer Kemar Roach gave the Windies something to cheer about by claiming his 12th five-wicket haul. Facing a surface that looked to be easing out under the sun, the Windies openers, John Campbell and Tagenarine Chanderpaul, showed some intent. They negotiated the new ball with grit, surviving the first 11 overs unscathed to reach 20/0 at Lunch, hinting at a determined fightback.
Session Summary - 34 overs, 105 runs with the loss of no wicket. When the chips are down, you hold onto hope. West Indies are doing exactly that. A wonderful fightback from the visitors as the 140-run partnership between Shai Hope and Justin Greaves has put the game in balance going into the final day. From 72/4, they have taken the score to 212/4 with 319 runs more to win.

Welcome back for the final session of Day 4. The umpires and the players are out in the middle. Shai Hope and Justin Greaves will resume their innings. Michael Bracewell to start with the ball. Let's go...
... DAY 4, SESSION 3 ...
Shai Hope has stood tall as a lone warrior, looking completely untroubled by the Kiwi tactics. He has been joined by Justin Greaves, who has looked solid and struck a few crisp drives against the pace. However, the visitors are in a precarious position, having lost four wickets. The Windies still face a mountain to climb, needing another 424 runs for victory with only six wickets left in the bank. Join us in a bit post the Tea Break...
Session Summary - 29 overs, 87 runs, and 4 wickets! It is Tea on Day 4, and the session has been a tale of contrasting fortunes for the West Indies. The New Zealand attack has been relentless, bowling perfect lines that troubled everyone except Shai Hope. Jacob Duffy was the standout performer, finding the outside edges of both John Campbell and Tagenarine Chanderpaul to send them back early. Tom Latham’s decision to introduce spin worked perfectly as Michael Bracewell deceived Athanaze, followed closely by Matt Henry producing an unplayable delivery to remove skipper Roston Chase.

Welcome back for the second session of Day 4. The umpires and the players are out in the middle. John Campbell and Tagenarine Chanderpaul will resume their innings. Zakary Foulkes will start with the ball. Let's go...
... DAY 4, SESSION 2 ...
Earlier, New Zealand declared their innings, setting an imposing target of 531 runs for the West Indies after a rapid 14-over spell that added 49 runs while losing 4 wickets to cross the desired 500-run lead. The hosts, who started the day with a 481-run advantage, aggressively pursued runs, allowing the West Indies to capitalize on errors, with Kemar Roach leading the attack to claim a five-wicket haul, supported by Ojay Shields and Jayden Seales who took the remaining three wickets. A good session for New Zealand and they'll try to pick wickets in the next session. Stay tuned for the post-Lunch session.
So, a tough patch for West Indies to shake it off and they have done a decent job of going unscathed into the break. New Zealand had their tails up and bowled with a lot of fire. Matt Henry and Zakary Foulkes were right on the money with the new ball, which troubled the Windies batters. However, both batters took a couple of blows on the body but eventually managed to see through the first session.
