Summary New Zealand chasing 112 to win the first test against the West Indies.

DUNEDIN (AP) - New Zealand lost an early wicket and was 3-1 at lunch as it chased 112 to win the first test against the West Indies after dismissing the tourists for 507 in their second innings before lunch on the final day.

Darren Bravo was out for 218 and captain Darren Sammy for 80 as the West Indies added 64 to their overnight total of 443-6. Neil Wagner took two wickets Saturday to finish with 3-112.

Off-spinner Shane Shillingford then made a vital early breakthrough, dismissing Peter Fulton for 3 in the third over of the New Zealand innings.

Players wore black arm bands and flags around the University Oval flew at half-mast as a mark of respect for former South Africa president Nelson Mandela who died Thursday.
