New Zealand have won the toss and have opted to bat

Latham: 

Going to have a bat first. Have seen in the past spin can play a role in the back end. We understand that the first two hours can be challenging to bat on. Haven't played a huge amount of cricket at the Mount but hopefully we can adapt to the surface. Ajaz comes in for Tickner.

Chase: 

Would've bowled first if I had won the toss, feel good about that. Have shown glimpses in the first two games. Have a chance to win a Test so that's motivating. One change - Athanaze is in. Were forced to make a change with the injury.

Rally round the West Indies.
