CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand (AP) — The West Indies have won the toss Sunday and chosen to bowl in the first one-day international against New Zealand at Hagley Oval.

New Zealand already has beaten the West Indies 3-1 in the Twenty20 series and beat England 3-0 in a one-day international series last month for its 10th consecutive ODI series win at home.

Tom Latham and Matt Henry rejoin the New Zealand team after missing the T20 series. The rest of the New Zealand lineup is seasoned by having played those matches.

John Campbell, Keacy Carty and Justin Greaves return to the West Indies lineup captained by Shai Hope.

Conditions are fine and the pitch at Hagley Oval has a light coating of grass.
