9.55am
It is overcast and a bit breezy, but all set for a start. The pitch looks nice and green.

Darren Sammy:
Hopefully our bowlers could get it right at the start, it's another opportunity for them.
Our bowlers didn't put the ball in the right areas in the last match and we learnt from the way
the NZ bowlers bowled to us. Hopefully we will get it right this time.
We contemplated on playing Sunil Narine but looking at the pitch, I don't think it will be fair to
change the combination.
No changes in the team.

New Zealand have not won a Test at the Basin Reserve in their last seven attempts :
since thrashing Bangladesh in 2008.
In 2006 they beat West Indies by 10 wickets
