St Kitts: Jul 11, 2012
West Indies captain Darren Sammy has won the toss and elected to bowl first in the third One-Day International (ODI) against New Zealand at St Kitts.
West Indies earlier took a crucial 2-0 lead in the five-match series with a handy 55-run win over the Black Caps at Sabina Park on Saturday.
Last Thursday, they won the opener by nine wickets at the same venue.
The visistors are clearly desperate for win. Off-spinner Nathan McCullum said the beleaguered New Zealand have no choice but to win the third One-Day International at Warner Park.
