The West Indies walked away from the first Test against New Zealand in Dunedin with an unlikely draw, after rain arrived late on day five with the Black Caps needing just 33 more runs to win.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

Sometimes luck is required but had Bravo and Deonarine not got stuck in, in the first place, there would not have been a game. That must be congratulated.
Had it not rained West Indies would have lost so that is quite lucky.
The New Zealanders made a real fist of it by allowing 4 quick wickets to fall. Although chasing a small total always seems a challenge, at all levels, the Kiwis gave their wickets away as Shillingford was not doing anything prodigious. The ball was neither jumping nor turning square, so it is a mystery to me why the New Zealanders gave their wickets away.
Although McCallum said he does not regret anything, he does. Of the two teams I would think the West Indies has come out feeling better, with better momentum and belief that they can compete.
Sammy should take the opportunity to rest that hamstring as they are nasty injuries and we would not want to see it worsening, as it can.

I reiterate .. The Kiwis will never beat the windies. Even when all will seem lost there will be divine intervention to prevent a Kiwis victory

Interesting but had the rain not intervened, West Indies would have lost.
It would be interesting to see how West Indies progress into the next test.

Bravo should've been MOM IMO. Either way close call to be fair.
Good draw, thanks to rain
Kiwis really would've to try hard the next match to win the series. I hope rain doesn't play spoilsport.
