Kiwis cement third spot with historic win vs Windies

Bangalore: New Zealand's historic series win in the West Indies has strengthened its position in third place on the ICC Test Championship table, according to an official ICC press release.

The Kiwis' 1-0 victory, courtesy of the 204 runs win in Barbados and a drawn match in Grenada, adds two points to its total and improves its series points average to 1.18. Sri Lanka (1.07) and England (1.06) remain in fourth and fifth places respectively. Stephen Fleming's side is the first from New Zealand to win a series in the Caribbean. The last meeting in the West Indies in 1995-96 ended in a 1-0 victory for the home team. The defeat leaves West Indies in sixth place, but with a reduced series points average. Its record now shows six wins, eight defeats and a single draw from the 15 series it has played in the Championship. Extras:
