Volkswacht Bodensee - West Indies 206-2, trail by 369, after Duffy's double strike

Kavem Hodge was unbeaten on 53 and Tevin Imlach 27 at the break, while Duffy had 2-53 from 16 overs.

The West Indies resumed at 110-0 and added only one run before Duffy made the breakthrough in the second over of the day.

John Campbell edged Duffy to Tom Latham at second slip without adding to his overnight 45.

It ended the first West Indies century opening stand since February 2023.

After showing little to no threat the evening before, New Zealand's bowlers settled into much better lengths in the morning session.

Duffy doubled up when he bowled Brandon King, who had begun the day on 55, for 63.

Wicketkeeper Tevin Imlach was promoted to bat at number four after Shai Hope spent the whole of the second day at the team hotel with illness.

Imlach and Hodge steadied the West Indian innings with a smart, patient and unbeaten partnership worth 66 runs.

Hodge brought up his 50 from 85 balls, guiding an Ajaz Patel ball backward of point for his ninth boundary one over before lunch.

New Zealand declared their first innings on Friday at a mammoth 575-8, anchored by Devon Conway's epic 227 and captain Latham's 137.
