New Zealand and the West Indies emphasize the positives as they dispensed with the whites and focused on a cricketing format they are clearly more relaxed with.
Attention now switches to the limited overs component of the tour, with a sequence of two Twenty20 matches and five one-dayers starting at Auckland's Eden Park on Boxing Day.
Those contests will ideally produce a dominant force after their two test series ended at McLean Park in Napier yesterday without a definitive winner.
The first match was essentially washed out in Dunedin, while a string of compelling individual performances ensured an outright result was never really in prospect in the decider.
