New Zealand vs West Indies, 2nd T20I - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Jayden Seales to Santner, SIX, good end for the hosts! Fuller ball, angled in, Santner gave himself room and strikes it big and clean over long-off. Superb hitting from the skipper

Jayden Seales to Mitchell, 3 runs, poor fielding allows an extra run. Was a fuller length delivery, Mitchell sliced it away and they get a triple. King from long-off under-armed the throw to cover and that allowed time to get that extra run

Jayden Seales to Mitchell, FOUR, fuller length delivery, well outside off, Mitchell reached out for the line of the delivery and steered it fine for a four

Jayden Seales to Mitchell, FOUR, short ball, into the deck, Mitchell pivoted on the back foot and pulled it wide of deep mid for a four

Holder to Santner, SIX, and timed to perfection! Fetches it from outside off and slams the pull over deep mid. That was hit hard as he got hold of the short ball. Good end to the over for the hosts

Roston Chase to Mitchell, 1 run, dropped! Tough chance to the right of the bowler. Was a slower one, outside off, Mitchell slapped it back at the bowler and I guess it carried to him but was too hard. Chase has a smile on his face. He got a hand to it to his right but that was hit too hard

Roston Chase to Mitchell, 2 runs, Powell has done well. The fielder was close to the ropes, got a hand on it, he was going over and pushed the ball back into the playing area. They get a brace. Powell has saved four there. Acrobatic effort to hop up and push the ball back

Roston Chase to Michael Bracewell, out Caught by Forde!! His brief stay has ended. Not a glorious one for sure. Chipped down to long-off and an easy catch for the deep fielder. Was a tossed up delivery, Michael Bracewell wanted to go aerial but failed to time it well. Half the side is back in the hut but Nz can continue throwing caution to the winds as only few overs remain. Roston Chase has his second wicket. Michael Bracewell c Forde b Roston Chase 5(6) [4s-1]

Holder to Michael Bracewell, FOUR, the boundary hitting baton has been passed to another southpaw? Was a length delivery, outside off, Michael Bracewell opened the face of the bat and ran it down wide of short third man. Michael Bracewell gets off the mark

Holder to Chapman, out Caught&Bowled!! The fun has ended. Holder called for it and takes it. That was short, outside off, Chapman jumped down to slap it but ended up top-edging the ball. The ball went high and towards the short cover region. The bowler called for it and took it. Excellent knock from Chapman has come to an end. Single handedly he has created space for his bowlers in this game. Chapman c and b Holder 78(28) [4s-6 6s-7]

Akeal Hosein to Chapman, SIX, angled on to the pads, Chapman sat down and slammed it over deep backward square for a sixer. Good clean hitting by Chapman as he moves to 77 off 26 balls. Akeal Hosein has not had a great welcome to the bowling crease

Akeal Hosein to Chapman, SIX, six more. NZ and Chapman on the rampage. Charges down, doesn't get to the pitch of the ball but still lofts it over wide long-on for a sixer. Muscled by Chapman

Akeal Hosein to Mitchell, SIX, clipped over long-on for a sixer. Slided it on to the pads, Mitchell got under the ball and lofted the ball away to send it packing over the ropes

Jayden Seales to Chapman, SIX, goes over the ropes this time. On the sticks, angled in, Chapman got under the ball and lofted it. The ball fell between deep square and deep mid but more importantly was in the gap and over the ropes

Jayden Seales to Chapman, FOUR, fourth four off the over. Was well wide outside off, short ball, Chapman climbed on top of the bounce and slapped it over cover. He is seeing the ball like a football

Shepherd to Chapman, FOUR, dances down, meets the fuller ball and drills it wide of mid-off for a four. He is hitting them so well now

Shepherd to Chapman, SIX, six more. Chapman is on the march now. Length delivery, Chapman got hold of the delivery and lofted it over long-on. Managed to send it over the fielder. Holder is pretty tall but the ball went over him as well

Shepherd to Chapman, SIX, and into the stands! Fuller ball, on the pads, Chapman got hold of the delivery and heaved it over deep mid. He used the long handle really well

Roston Chase to Ravindra, 1 run, the man at deep mid drops it. Poor fielding. The fielder got his hands to it but took it too casually. I guess took his eyes off the ball at the last second

Roston Chase to Chapman, FOUR, backs away and drills the flatter delivery wide of cover for a four. The man at deep cover failed to get there as well. Chapman would be happy with that four

Shepherd to Tim Robinson, out Bowled!! Clean bowled again. Was a fuller length delivery, angled in, Tim Robinson looked to heave it down the ground without any feet and misses the line to be bowled. Poor shot and pays the price for it. Shepherd has had a good match up against Tim Robinson and he has him again. NZ have lost both the openers now. Windies on the charge now. Shepherd managed to angle it in nicely and that plotted the downfall for the batter. Tim Robinson b Shepherd 39(25) [4s-5 6s-1]

Forde to Conway, out Bowled!! Excellent call from the WI skipper to continue with Forde. Was an angled in delivery, Conway wanted to heave it across the line but missed the ball to be clean bowled. His pain has come to an end. He was never going anywhere with this knock. Forde has his man. He beat the bat a couple of times in the previous over but has gotten the wicket now. Just slanted it in and Conway played all around it. Conway b Forde 16(24) [6s-1]
