New Zealand vs West Indies, 4th T20I - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

The game today didn't see much action. But Windies will certainly look to bounce back after the defeats in the second and third game. They have one chance left to level the series. We will be back with the final game! Till then, take care! 

Mitch Santner: With the overcast conditions, it's quite nice. The ball was swinging a bit. I guess the pitch being under cover a little bit as well. The more you put yourself in these positions, the more you're going to learn from it. Obviously, nice to be on the right side of a couple. There's learnings in both games for both teams. We go to Dunedin, like you said, it's probably going to be a bit colder. But, probably another good surface and probably another good match, to be fair.

Shai Hope: We didn't really get a chance to get out there and maximise in this game, but we've still got a chance to level the series and that's our main focus for the next one. I was looking forward to this one, especially coming from Bangladesh. You'd expect a little bit better surface here in New Zealand. It's just about us trying to progress as a team. It's great to see the fight that we've been showing. Unfortunately, we didn't win those last two games. But every time you put yourself in this position, you've obviously got a chance to win. So I'm very happy with the progress that we're making.

16:07 Local Time, 03:07 GMT, 08:37 IST: Just spotted one of the umpires shaking hands with Shai Hope and now one of the umpires shook hands with Mitch Santner. That should be it. The fourth T20I has been abandoned. Rain has had the last laugh. We only had a few overs before rain. Windies were careful with their start. But the rains took centrestage and never left. The series stands at 2-1 in favour of NZ with one game left.

16:01 Local Time, 03:01 GMT, 08:31 IST: The cut-off time is 4:33 PM Local time. That's barely 30 minutes away. The umpires have the umbrellas up and they are taking a stroll now inside the ground. The umbrellas are there and that certainly can't be good news. The centre cover is firmly placed.

15:50 Local Time, 02:50 GMT, 08:20 IST: We were supposed to restart now. But that has been pushed back. We will have another fresh update very soon as the wait continues for the resumption. This is utterly frustrating.

15:44 Local Time, 02:44 GMT, 08:14 IST: Play to resume in 5 minutes time. That's bright news for sure. We have lost so much of time and it would be a curtailed affair. Windies have started slow and that won't help them much as far as DLS is concerned.

15:30 Local Time, 02:30 GMT, 08:00 IST: There's going to be another inspection at 15.44 local (8.14 IST). Currently, there's no rain.

15:15 Local Time, 02:15 GMT, 07:45 IST: We are hearing that there's going to be an in inspection at 15.20 local which is just five minutes away.

14:57 Local Time, 01:57 GMT, 07:27 IST: It's still raining in Nelson. "Looking slightly brighter now," says Frankie Mackay on air. The big covers are firmly placed and the wait continues...

14:17 Local Time, 01:17 GMT, 06:47 IST: Hope jogs off the field with a smile on his face. Santner has a word with umpire Wayne Knights. And the groundsmen bring on the covers as the rain has intensified. We already lost half an hour to rain and we'll start to lose overs now.

Drizzle has turned into rain
