2nd Test: West Indies v New Zealand at Port of Spain

blackwood is actually smaller than shive.

I like Blackwood already.  all the way forward to meet the spin..good defence..loves to play his shots and is good at doing so

Blackwood looks like he belongs already.

Near empty stadium!  Jurassic  Age cricket dead as a dodo.

rass!  the empty stadium looks ominous indeed : :

Blackwood and Bravo looks like they will attract the crowds again if we build a good team around them

they will do what Lara and Sammy couldn't

The lead has swelled to 175, as 86 runs came in the session from 27 overs. Yet again, New Zealand had no one to fall back on after Southee and Boult were done with the initial burst. Sodhi did dislodge Chanderpaul for 47, but he is too inconsistent to be a threat. Neesham was not used. Blackwood has been aggressive on debut
