New Zealand strike as West Indies lose brave Hope to be 120-5
New Zealand took three wickets in four overs, including the heroic Shai Hope, as the West Indies were 120-5 at tea, still 111 in arrears on day two of the first Test in Christchurch on Wednesday.
The not out batsmen were Tagenarine Chanderpaul on 45 and Tevin Imlach on three.
Hope, wearing sunglasses under heavily overcast skies because of an eye infection, looked to have turned the West Indies fortunes around after going to the crease at 10-2.
Despite being affected by conjunctivitis he was the lead run-maker in a 90-run partnership with Chanderpaul for the third wicket.
But after a near chanceless sixth Test half-century, he allowed a Jacob Duffy delivery to brush his gloves on its way to wicketkeeper Tom Latham and was gone for 56.
Matt Henry followed with a double-wicket maiden, having both Roston Chase and Justin Greaves caught behind by Latham without scoring, as the West Indies slumped from 100-2 to 106-5.
The West Indies took just three balls to end the New Zealand first innings at the start of the day, without adding to their overnight 231-9.
Zak Foulkes, the last man out, was then immediately in the action with the ball.
The 23-year-old swing specialist, playing just his second Test, removed John Campbell for one with his first delivery.
Will Young completed the dismissal with a smart one-handed catch to his left at third slip, but then dropped a regulation chance when Alick Athanaze on four, edged Matt Henry.
However, the scoreboard had not moved before Henry bowled Athanaze in his following over with a ball that nipped back sharply to have the West Indies 10-2.
