No corner in sight as WI batsmen hand NZ match

After allowing the visitors to declare not once but twice, the West Indies were unable to reach 300 in either of their own innings and meekly surrendered the first Test by a margin of 186 runs. Coach Otis Gibson lamented the ineptitude of the batsmen, calling it "bitterly disappointing".

Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, gleeful Kiwi press celebrate the "thrashing" and debutant offspinner Mark Craig's resounding success on a benign pitch.
