West Indies have won the two-Test series against Zimbabwe 1-NIL, even as Si-kan-dar Raza’s 89 and Regis Cha-kab-va’s unbeaten 71 allowed Zimbabwe to hold off the West Indies in the second Test and earn their first draw in 12 years today.
With Raza making his third major contribution of the match and Chakabva batting out almost 50 overs in an unbroken stand of 91 with captain Graeme Cremer, Zimbabwe reached 301 for seven in their second innings before the two teams shook hands on the draw.
The West Indies had looked the likeliest side to secure victory on the final day, when Raza’s dismissal left Zimbabwe on 210 for seven, leading by just 88 runs with nearly 64 overs still left in the day.
But Chakabva and Cremer held a good partnership which the Windies were unable to break, forcing them to be content with a 1-NIL series victory.
