- Tatenda Taibu, who followed his first innings unbeaten 71 with 52 in the second innings, was the top scorer for Zimbabwe in both the innings. He is the second Zimbabwe skipper to top score in both innings of a Test. The only other Zimbabwe captain to do so is Andy Flower, who achieved this distinction twice -- vs Pakistan 1994-95 and vs Sri Lanka [Images] in 1999-00 in Harare.

- The last five Zimbabwean wickets added 167 runs to the total after being five down for 18 at one stage. This is the second best recovery for a team having lost half of its side for 20 runs or less.  In the Sialkot Test against Sri Lanka Pakistan's second innings ended at 212 from being 15 for 5 at one stage -- an addition of 197 runs.

- Sourav Ganguly [Images] became the first Indian captain and tenth in Test cricket history to record 20 Test wins.

- The victory was India's tenth under Ganguly captaincy on foreign soil. This puts Ganguly in the exclusive club of five other captains who have led their respective sides to ten wins in away Tests. Ganguly, in fact, has won more away Tests than Mark Taylor and Hansie Cronje [Images], two of the best captains in Test cricket. Interestingly, Sunil Gavaskar [Images] and Mohammad Azharuddin, whom Ganguly displaced to second position in terms of most Tests as Indian captain in Bulawayo Test, have only two and one away Test wins respectively against their names.
