    A brief moment to reflect for Black Caps leg spinner Ish Sodhi in between games three and four of their T20 series against the West Indies in Nelson

    A brief moment to reflect for Black Caps leg spinner Ish Sodhi in between games three and four of their T20 series against the West Indies in Nelson


    He comes into this afternoon's fourth game having taken three wickets in yesterday's third game victory - moving to third on the international all-time list for the format.

    Sodhi - who trails only former New Zealand team-mate Tim Southee and Afghanistan's Rashid Khan - says it's an accomplishment that's worth marking.



    First ball in game four at Saxton Oval is set for 1.15pm.

    The Black Caps have won the toss and elected to bowl first.

    They've made one change - Mark Chapman coming in for Mitch Hay, with Devon Conway taking over wicket-keeping duties.
