    NZ Vs WI: West Indies Go One Up In T20I Series With Seven-run Win In Opener

    By IANS News November 05, 2025 • 16:18 PM View: 273
    Skipper Mitchel Santner: West Indies secured a clutch win against New Zealand in the first T20I of the five-match series between the two sides that started here on Wednesday at Eden Park. In what turned out to be a low-scoring thriller, the visitors clinched a victory by seven runs.

    The hosts’ decision to bowl first after winning the toss backfired as they failed to chase an above-par target of 165 runs. Put to bat first, the Windies lost the wicket of Brandon King in the first over as the Kiwis got off to a flyer.

    Alick Athanaze notched up a quick nine-ball 16, while Ackeem Auguste was dismissed cheaply, scoring just two runs, as the visitors were reduced to 43/3 in seven overs.
