New Zealand wrapped up the three-match ODI series with a 2-1 victory after cruising to a six-wicket win over West Indies in the decider at Providence Stadium, Guyana. Having opted to bowl first, the visitors delivered another clinical performance with the ball before comfortably chasing down a modest target of 141 in 39.3 overs.

Left-arm spinner Jayden Lennox starred with the ball to claim the Player of the Match award, while Tom Latham's unbeaten knock ensured there were no late hiccups in the chase.

West Indies never managed to recover after losing wickets at regular intervals. Keacy Carty top-scored with 48 off 77 balls, while Shimron Hetmyer chipped in with 26, but the hosts were bundled out for 140 in 37.1 overs.

Lennox ripped through the lower order with 4/52, while captain Mitchell Santner (2/15) and Michael Bracewell (2/33) applied relentless pressure to leave the Caribbean side with an underwhelming total.

In reply, New Zealand lost a few wickets but never looked troubled by the small target. Tom Latham remained unbeaten on 31 off 53 balls, anchoring the chase alongside Dean Foxcroft, who finished 22 not out.

Earlier, Henry Nicholls (24), Will Young (23) and Daryl Mitchell (28) made useful contributions as the Black Caps reached 141/4 with 63 balls to spare. West Indies found some joy through Vitel Lawes, who picked up 3/39, but lacked enough runs to put sustained pressure on the visitors.

The victory completed an impressive comeback for New Zealand after losing the opening ODI. They bounced back by winning the final two matches convincingly to seal the series, with their bowling attack proving to be the difference.

For West Indies, batting collapses in the last two games proved costly, as they surrendered a series they had initially looked well placed to win.
