Nicholls, Young Provide New Zealand a Steady Start in the Chase of 141

New Zealand have set a strong platform to chase 141 in the third ODI at the Providence Stadium. Both openers, Henry Nicholls and Will Young, showed composure at the crease, giving New Zealand a firm stand in the Powerplay.

West Indies have so far looked undisciplined in bowling, which gave New Zealand an opportunity to get off to a good start. It is an important match for the visitors in which their position is looking very strong after bowling out West Indies on a low total.

At the end of the 15th over, New Zealand have scored 50 runs for the loss of just one wicket. They are currently controlling the chase, as WI is struggling to contain their scoring rate even after the Powerplay. They need to pick wickets now, otherwise, New Zealand is aiming to chase the target quickly to get a 2-1 lead in the series.
