Dunedin, New Zealand: Darren Bravo made a potentially match-saving double century to lead the West Indies to 443-6 at stumps on the fourth day of the first test Friday, frustrating New Zealand and preventing the tourists' third-straight innings defeat in tests.
   




Bravo's fifth century and highest test score -- surpassing his 195 against Bangladesh two years ago -- saw the West Indies edge into the lead, 47 runs ahead. The visitors are following-on, having been bowled out for 213 in their first innings in reply to New Zealand's 609-9 declared.
   
By stumps, Bravo was 210 not out and captain Darren Sammy 44.
   
Kirk Edwards and Narsingh Deonarine made half-centuries, while Ish Sodhi has 2-130 to be the only bowler with more than one wicket.
