WELLINGTON: New Zealand fought back to claim first-day honors in the second Test against the West Indies, but the home side was rocked when seam bowler Blair Tickner was taken to the hospital with a nasty injury.

New Zealand were 24-0 at the close of play after bowling the West Indies out for 205 in 75 overs.

Tickner was the pick of the New Zealand bowlers, taking 4-32 from 16 overs, but his day ended prematurely when he was injured fielding and left on a stretcher.

He attempted to dive for a ball on the boundary and failed to get up after falling heavily. New Zealand Cricket said he had suffered a left shoulder injury.

As per details, Medical staff rushed to Tickner’s aid, and after some worrying moments, he eventually sat up before being taken away to an ambulance.
