WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AFP) – New Zealand won the second Test against the West Indies by an innings and 12 runs in Wellington to sweep the two-Test series.
The Test ended in the first session on day four after the West Indies, out for 131 in their first innings, folded for 317 in their second in reply to New Zealand’s first innings 460.
