New Zealand vs. West Indies 1st Test

The changes made by New Zealand's new coach, Andy Moles, in the wake of the batting disasters in Australia ensured the team held the edge over West Indies on a truncated opening day at the University Oval. His decision to push Daniel Flynn to No. 3 and slot Jesse Ryder down at No.5 proved a masterstroke of sorts as both managed half-centuries before bad light forced an early finish with more than 16 overs remaining.
