Overshadowed, as was their previous meeting in the Caribbean, by a somewhat more important international sporting event, the third series in less than two and a half years between the West Indies and New Zealand carries special significance for the teams all the same.
In 2012, while Usain Bolt, Shelly Ann Fraser, Kirani James, Kishorn Walcott and a host of athletes from the cricketing Caribbean were featuring at the London Olympics, the West Indies were completing a rare, comprehensive triumph over the Black Caps at home.
The roles were identically reversed in the return contest in New Zealand last December and January.
