Windies take on Kiwis today
KINGSTON, June 4: The West Indies will seek to continue their nascent cricketing recovery when they take on New Zealand in five One-day Internationals and two Test matches, starting with a limited overs game at Sabina Park here Wednesday.
West Indies captain Carl Hooper, fresh from a gruelling, two-month home tour against India, showed faith in the squad that lost a five-match series of one dayers 2-1.
New Zealand have had a tortured build-up to their late-season Caribbean tour, which is expected to be affected by rain.
New Zealand’s tour of Pakistan in May ended dramatically when a bomb exploded outside their team hotel, but they had already suffered a heavy innings defeat in the first Test.—AFP
