New Zealand crushes the West Indies to complete a 2-0 win

New Zealand led by 155 runs after declaring their first innings 575-8 and then West Indies set the record chase when declaring 306-2 in their second innings.

Latham and fellow opener Devon Conway became the first opening team in the history of Test cricket to score centuries in both innings as they put their team in a commanding position.

Conway, who scored 227 and 100, became the 10th batsman in Test history to score a hundred and a hundred in the same match, while Duffy took 23 wickets in the three-match series.

West Indies captain Ruston Chase made just two fives in the third Test to complete a difficult series in which he scored just 42 runs and took three wickets.

“I think I had a tough streak, and it was way below my standards,” Chase said. “I wasn’t really leading from the front of the field.

“Leading in terms of words and encouraging and inspiring the team, that was all well and good, but in terms of going out there and producing for the team, I thought I let myself down and I let the team down as well.”
