San Francisco Frontiers - Duffy takes five as NZ tear through West Indies to arrow in on win

Seamer Duffy took 5-38 from 17.2 overs, his second five-wicket haul in Test matches.

Debutant Michael Rae took 3-45 while Kavem Hodge was the best of the West Indian batters in their second innings, scoring 35.

The three-Test series is tied 0-0 after the first match in Christchurch ended in a draw.

It was a limp effort from the visitors, who resumed on day three at 32-2, trailing by 41 runs having lost John Campbell and nightwatchman Anderson Phillip late on day two.

At lunch they were 98-6, with Justin Greaves (13) and Tevin Imlach (2) at the crease and needing a significant late fightback, as they did in the first Test in Christchurch, to have any chance in the match.

But it took just 9.2 overs for New Zealand to clean up the tail, the collapse starting when Greaves fell to an lbw off Duffy that was reviewed by New Zealand and would have clipped the top of leg stump.

Earlier in the day Brandon King and Hodge started brightly, negating a pitch that was offering variable bounce to the New Zealand bowlers.

King was the first to depart, for 22, after a dreadful mix-up running between the wickets, run out by Michael Bracewell.

That sparked a mini-collapse as first Shai Hope and then captain Roston Chase were removed by Rae and Duffy respectively.

Hodge patiently moved to 35 as wickets fell at the other end, but he departed after Will Young took a stunning diving catch from a pull shot at midwicket.
