West Indies vs New Zealand Second Test at Napier

WI v NZ, 2nd Test, Napier: Gayle hits 197 as Napier Test ends in draw

A masterful 197 by Chris Gayle saved the West Indies and ensured a drawn series as New Zealand gave up their run chase Tuesday with nine overs remaining in the second cricket Test.
Facing a target of 312 in 60 overs, New Zealand passed the 200 mark with 16 overs left but dropped off the pace when Brendon McCullum, their last hard-hitting batsman, fell to a questionable dismissal. When captains Gayle and Daniel Vettori agreed to call the players in, New Zealand were 220 for five with Jesse Ryder not out on 59.
The result meant both Tests were drawn and ensured the West Indies remained at seven in the world rankings, one place ahead of New Zealand.
When the West Indies resumed the final day at 278 for seven New Zealand had visions of wrapping up the innings quickly but Gayle had other ideas. With stoic support from Edwards, they forged a 70-run partnership for the eighth wicket before Gayle's eight and a half hours at the crease ended in freakish circumstances.
He turned a loose delivery from off-spinner Patel down the leg side but the ball hit the foot of wicketkeeper McCullum and bounced up into his gloves.
When the West Indies innings ended at 375 just on lunch, New Zealand were left facing a mammoth 312 run chase in 60 overs.

WI v NZ, 2nd Test, Napier: New Zealand 371 & 220-5 drew with West Indies 307 & 375
