The hosts with the early lead - That wraps up our coverage for today’s cracking encounter. The action will shift gears very soon as these two sides lock horns once again for the 2nd ODI on Monday, 13th July. The live broadcast gets underway at 6.30 pm GMT, so make sure to tune in early for all the pre-match analysis, expert opinions, and toss updates. Until then, take care, and cheers!

The skipper of West Indies - Shai Hope starts by talking about qualification and says that they are still a long way off, but they had to start somewhere. Adds that it wasn't an easy pitch to bat on and applauds Keacy Carty for the way he roared back into form. On young Vitel Lawes, Hope says that he was a bit nervy to begin with, but soon hit his stride and that's great to see. Hope says that partnerships are very important on a surface like this and feels that Keacy shepherded the innings really well. On his batting, he says that he tries to stay low and play the ball late and tries to adapt to different surfaces as quickly as possible.

The captain of New Zealand - Mitchell Santner says that it was a challenging wicket to bat on first and hoped to get to 280, but the opposition bowled well and it was a clinical chase from them. Adds that once you get in on such a surface, you need to take it deep and extending those partnerships was key, which didn't happen. Reckons that it was still a bit slow in the second innings, but the ball did come on a bit better because of the dew.

Player of the Match - Keacy Carty is given the accolade for his fine knock of 95 runs. He starts by saying that he was able to continue and his team got over the line, which is the most important thing. Adds that he had a bit of a drought with the bat, so he went back to the drawing board and it worked out. Further, he says that playing in New Zealand was challenging for the top-order batters, whereas it was a slow pitch here and starting on it was a bit tough as well. On batting alongside Shai Hope, Crty says that Hope came in and was quick opff the blocks, which took the pressure off him.

The Presentation ceremony...

A relentless Windies fightback - After choosing to bat first, New Zealand put together a solid foundation but crumbled late in the day to be bowled out for 267. Openers Will Young and Henry Nicholls set the platform with a steady 75-run stand before 19-year-old debutant Vitel Lawes broke the partnership. Daryl Mitchell anchored the middle order beautifully, striking his fourth consecutive fifty to put the visitors on track for a 280-plus total at 216/4 after 40 overs. However, a relentless West Indies bowling attack led by Alzarri Joseph tore through the lower order in the final Powerplay, triggering a late collapse to wrap up the Kiwi innings.

Not enough firepower - It was a rather depleted Kiwi pace attack and it showed. Matthew Fisher made his debut and toiled hard without any reward, and so did most of New Zealand's bowlers. The dew didn't make things any easier, but Mitchell Santner did bowl really well and was a bit unlucky not to have gotten any wickets.

The captain leads the way - Shai Hope has been West Indies' stalwart when it comes to the ODI format, and he's yet again shown his mettle. The Windies will be delighted to have Keacy Carty back in form, and we all know once he gets into a rhythm, he can be very dangerous in this format. The duo put on a stand of 131 runs for the 3rd wicket, which proved to be the backbone of the successful chase. Carty unfortunately missed out on a century as he got out on 95, but Hope remained unbeaten on 87 as Sherfane Rutherford came in and added the finishing touches.

The streak is broken - A win after 5 straight losses in this format for West Indies and they rack up vital points in the race for direct qualification for the 2027 Men's ODI World Cup. New Zealand did hang in the game but with the dew taking effect, batting did start to get easier and the Kiwis simply couldn't get anough wickets to give the Windies a real run for their money.
