Heath Streak
Heath Streak’s fifer at Bulawayo ensured India could make only 161

Heath Streak had already shown what he was capable of when he brought Sachin Tendulkar to his knees when he bowled the batsman with a scorcher in the 1996 World Cup. Although he couldn’t manage to get the Little Master’s wicket this time in Bulawayo, he sent the middle and lower order packing to dismiss India for a paltry 161.

He first sent back Ajay Jadeja and then came back to break a stubborn 64 run partnership between Robin Singh and Anil Kumble. Once Kumble was out, the floodgates opened and India went on to lose the last 4 wickets for 9 runs, all of them going to Streak.

The Zimbabweans later chased down the revised total of 139 with ease to go one up in the series.
