Summary New Zealand are 2-1 up going into the final match, with one game rained out.
HAMILTON (AFP) - New Zealand won the toss and sent the West Indies in to bat in the fifth and final one-day international at Seddon Park in Hamilton on Wednesday.
"It s a good surface and history suggests that it gets a little bit easier to chase later on," Blacks Caps skipper Brendon McCullum said.
"With the sun out, we think if there s any variable pace it ll come through in that first innings."
