OUTTT!!!! The break has worked for New Zealand as Alick Atahnazae is caught by Daryll Mitchell off Jimmy Neesham. Athanaze lofts it downtown but the bat turns around at the point of contact. The ball goes high up in the air only for Mitchell take a simple catch. He departs for 21. WI 35/1 (6)
Good news for the fans. The rain has stopped and the players are out in the middle. It’s been a good break for both the teams. Jimmy Neesham with the ball to bowl the final over of the powerplay.
Ohh no. It’s raining in Nelson. The play has been stopped just after 5 overs with West Indies at 30/0.
After a quite first two overs, the first boundary of the match comes from Alick Athanaze’s bat. Athanaze dances down the track and slaps the ball hard on the leg-side for four. No chance for the fielder at mid-off. BANGGG!!! Athanaze walks across the line and brings his wrist into play for a six. WI 17/0 (3)
Amir Jangoo and Alick Athanaze walk down in the middle. Kyle Jamieson will open the attack for Kiwis.
