New Zealand marched to an easy victory in the first test against the West Indies at the Basin Reserve today, completing the job shortly after lunch with a day and a half to spare.
The Windies, having started the day at 214 for two, 172 runs behind New Zealand, were dismissed for 319, 48 minutes after lunch handing the hosts an innings and 67-run victory.
They had lost a further three wickets by the interval but the last five wickets came in a freefall after lunch.
The first two fell in seven balls.
