With Glenn Phillips: Devon Conway compiled the highest Test score to help New Zealand declare their innings at a massive score of 575/8, but the West Indies responded with a strong start in their first innings as they reached 110 for no loss at stumps on Day 2 of the third and final Test at Bay Oval on Friday.
Conway scored a brilliant 227, and with Rachin Ravindra contributing a crucial 72 not out, sharing an unbeaten 39-run partnership for the ninth wicket with recalled spinner Ajaz Patel (30 not out), New Zealand built on their overnight score of 334/1 and declared on 575/8 in their first innings on the Friday morning.

Brandon King reached 55 undefeated, and with his partner John Campbell was batting on 45 not out as the West Indies ended the day trailing New Zealand by 465 runs.
