New Zealand U19 vs West Indies U19, 4th Match, Group A - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

That's all we have from this game. It turned out to be a one-sided affair, which is unfortunate, specially after the start that Simmons and Melius provided. Hope we are treated with more tight games. We'll be back tomorrow. Until then, it's goodbye!

Kaylum Boshier: Pretty pleased with how we played today. Got to improve in a few areas - fielding as a unit, and bowling early in the innings. Consistency is what we are after. Conditions here are useful for the home team. We started well and we are looking forward to playing Kenya and then South Africa. He batted really well and Bhula as well. That partnership won us the game. Their batting against spin was really good.

Emmanuel Stewart: It was a good total, but should have got more with the start we had. Credit to Allen, the way he played. Credit to the openers, unfortunately we lost wickets trying to accelerate. That's the area we need to improve. We didn't start well as a bowling unit. They put us under pressure and we didn't find a way to recover. We'll have execute our plans better.

Finn Allen, Player of the Match: It was good. Good for the boys to get the first win of the tournament. Awesome start. I don't think it (playing WC 2 years back) makes any difference. It's different conditions here. I learnt about myself and my own game (playing for MCC). It was really crucial. It's obviously a really good start against the past winners. Puts up right there in terms of confidence. That's key going forward.

20:56 Local Time, 07:56 GMT, 13:26 IST: A walk in the park for New Zealand in their opening match. 233 was never a good total and all the Kiwis needed was a couple of good partnerships. Jakob Bhula and Finn Allen got the job done with ease. A 163-run stand for the second wicket and they didn't allow the defending champions a sniff. Allen was the aggressor and he was superb against the spinners employing the sweep shot to excellent effect. Allen brought up his century, but his partner Bhula missed the milestone by 17 runs. Earlier in the day, it was New Zealand's spinners, who restricted Windies to a below-par score after the openers got them off to a soilid start.
