West Indies is set to take on New Zealand in the second Test match the Basin reserve in Wellington on Wednesday.

 

Rain helped West Indies escape with a draw in the first Test at Dunedin. However, they will take heart from the fact that they managed to fightback after being bowled out for 213 in the first innings and then being asked to follow on.

 

The form of Darren Bravo also comes as good news for the visitors.

 

New Zealand on the other hand are pondering over their bowling combination going into the Wellington match where the pitch is expected to assist the pacers.

 

Teams:

 

New Zealand: Peter Fulton, Hamish Rutherford, Kane Williamson, Ross Taylor, Brendon McCullum (c), Corey Anderson, BJ Watling (wk), Tim Southee, Ish Sodhi, Neil Wagner, Trent Boult.

 

West Indies: Kirk Edwards, Kieran Powell, Darren Bravo, Marlon Samuels, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Denesh Ramdin (wk), Darren Sammy (c), Veerasammy Permaul, Narsingh Deonarine, Tino Best, Shane Shillingford.
