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

Ojay Shields to Mitchell Hay, out Caught by Roach!! Gone this time! The short ball ploy works as Shields generates more bounce on this occasion. Mitchell Hay goes after this one with a pull shot and doesn't bother to keep it down even as he swivels. Pays the price. Hits it flat and straight down Roach's throat at long leg. Roach, after catching, throws the ball towards his team-mates and then walks past the boundary rope to sign a few autographs. Mitchell Hay c Roach b Ojay Shields 61(93) [4s-9 6s-1]
