Windies ask Zimbabwe to bat

Roseau - West Indies captain Darren Sammy has won the toss and put Zimbabwe in to bat in the second and final Test at Windsor Park in Dominica on Wednesday.

Seeking their sixth consecutive Test match victory, the home side have retained the same team that won the first test in Barbados by nine wickets.

Zimbabwe, who are attempting to end a run of six defeats in a row in international matches on this tour, have replaced experienced left-arm spinner Ray Price with former captain and off-spinner Prosper Utseya.
