India Vs Zimbabwe - Test Series

 II Test Match, Delhi (Feb 28 -4 March, 200) 

II Test Match - Day 5

Turbanator to the rescue again!
Trust the Indians to give their opponents a morale-booster and their fans a heart attack! True to their nature, the Indian batsmen almost made a hash of chasing 86 runs needed for victory against Zimbabwe and it was ultimately the Turbanator who did it in style with a six off Heath Streak.

II Test Match - Day 4

Zimbabwe struck by the Turbanator!
The Turbanator struck Zimbabwe and India is on the verge of a memorable victory. This was the story of Day-4 at the Feroz Shah Kotla grounds here. Harbhajan Singh (6/62) combined with Anil Kumble (4/58) to decimate the visitors for 121 in their second innings. And at close India needed 86 more runs for a win.

II Test Match - Day 3

Ganguly-Sehwag shine on murky day
Sourav Ganguly is a relieved man indeed. The Indian captain scored his first century over 23 tests and 40 innings to guide the team to a virtually unassailable position of 319 for six against Zimbabwe on the third day of the second test match, which was marred by murky conditions and bad light.

II Test Match - 2 Day

Indians flounder against disciplined Zimbabwe
Indian batsmen again made the friendly but disciplined Zimbabwe attack look better than it is to end the second day of the second test match here making 171 runs for the loss of the four top-ranking batsmen and still requiring 158 more runs to get past the visitors' first innings score of 329 all-out.

II Test Match - I Day

Flower Blooms at Delhi
India struck back late in the day to claim three quick wickets after Andy Flower (92) struck up a fruitful partnership with newcomer Dion Ebrahim (82) for the fourth wicket to take Zimbabwe to relative comfort at 260 for six wickets on day one of the second test match at the Feroze Shah Kotla stadium here.

 1st Test, Mohali (Feb 21 - 25, 2001) 

Tendulkar, Bangar flay Zimbabwe attack
Catch all the action as the Indian batsman led by the master blaster Sachin Tendulkar take on a toothless Zimbabwe bowling attack during the first test played between the two nations at Nagpur

India defeat Zimbabwe in First Test
Anil Kumble took another ten-wicket haul and did a jugalbandi with Harbhajan Singh to ensure a 100-run victory for India over Zimbabwe in the first test match of the two-test series at Nagpur. Though Kumble walked away with the Man-of-the-match award, there were indeed some commendable performances over the five days by the Indians. Check out for details.

Test Match - V Day

Kumble, Singh bamboozle Zimbabwe
It took less than 90 minutes for the ‘Smiling Assassin’ and the ‘Turbanator’ to take India to victory on the fifth morning of the first test match against Zimbabwe. Anil Kumble (6/63) and Harbhajan Singh (4/46) simply ran through the visitors’ middle-order to leave India victors by 100 runs with the best part of two-and-half sessions of play remaining

Test Match - IV Day

Kumble strikes early blows after Bangar ton puts India ahead
All-rounder Sanjay Bangar today blitzed a maiden test century that enabled India to take a commanding lead over Zimbabwe before Anil Kumble struck thrice to leave the visitors battling to avoid defeat at 152 for 4 on day four of the first test match.

Test Match - III Day

Sachin sparkles with century as India reach 437-5
Sachin Tendulkar scored his 28th test match hundred remaining unbeaten on 137 as he took India into a virtually impregnable position at 437 for five at the end of the third day in the first cricket test match against Zimbabwe here.

Test Match - II Day

Das century glitters on a dull day
Diminutive opener SS Das (105) notched up a fine century to lead the Indian reply at 209 for two after Zimbabwe were all out for 287 on the second day of the first test match at the Vidharbha Cricket Association stadium here.

Test Match - I Day

Zaheer, Kumble restrict Zimbabweans
Zaheer Khan today made a triumphant return to test match cricket, ripping out three crucial wickets for 45 runs off 14 fiery overs, as Zimbabwe scored 248 runs for the loss of eight wickets in the First Test of the two-match series that began at Nagpur.
