Shai Hope has been the chief run scorer for West Indies with 33 runs off 58 balls but Tagenarine's resolve is unbeatable right now and he is holding up his end since the beginning with 25 runs off 83 balls! With West Indies determined to put in a good show in the whites New Zealand's pace battery might have to dig deep to crack this game open. It is the Hagley Oval which will host the first Test between New Zealand and West Indies. The hosts and the visitors have never played a Test before at this venue. A venue where only 1 out of 14 Tests has been drawn. It will be another result oriented track and NZ are a very tough team to beat here. However the last two Tests they have played here they have ended up losing it. But NZ traditionally are one of the toughest to beat at home and we might see another example of it. New Zealand are about to begin their campaign in the World Test Championship (WTC) 2025-27 cycle the last of the nine teams involved in the WTC to do so. They last played a Test against Zimbabwe four months ago while their previous fixture as part of the WTC was a year ago when England came to their shores and won the Crowe-Thorpe Trophy 2-1. Kane Williamson who skipped the Tests against Zimbabwe returns to the red-ball setup after an extensive preparation which saw him miss the recent ODI series against West Indies. Meanwhile on the bowling side of things Zakary Foulkes who impressed on Test debut against Zimbabwe with match figures of 9 for 75 could be a ready starter for his first Test at home.

West Indies on the other hand have endured a torrid start to their WTC cycle with a 3-0 whitewash against Australia at home which included being bowled out for 27 in the final Test. A 2-0 defeat to India followed in the subcontinent to make matters worse. But the men from the Caribbean showed a lot more application in the second Test against India dragging the game to Day 5 after India enforced the follow-on. John Campbell and Shai Hope led the fight with centuries. 🏏 In-depth Match Analysis: Expert commentary on team performance player ratings and game-changing decisions. 📊 Live Score Updates: Real-time tracking of the TEST Live Cricket Score. 💬 Interactive Fan Discussion: Share your opinions ask your questions and engage with other cricket fans in the live chat! ⭐ Key Moments & Highlights: Reviewing the best shots catches and bowling spells of the day.
