New Zealand have dismissed West Indies quickly on the fourth morning of the third test at Mt Maunganui and are now adding to their first-innings lead, as they chase a series victory.

Openers Tom Latham (6no) and Devon Conway (25no) have put on 35 more runs by lunch, with the Black Caps now 190 runs ahead.

They captured the last four West Indies wickets for just 39 runs in the morning session, with Kavem Hodge unbeaten on 123 runs and fast-bowler Jacob Duffy finishing with 4/86.

New Zealand currently lead the series 1-0, after victory at Wellington, with the first test at Christchurch finishing as a draw.

Black Caps squad: Tom Latham (captain), Tom Blundell (wicketkeeper), Michael Bracewell, Kristian Clarke, Devon Conway, Jacob Duffy, Zak Foulkes, Daryl Mitchell, Ajaz Patel, Glenn Phillips, Michael Rae, Rachin Ravindra, Kane Williamson, Will Young
