- The remarkable thing about Andy's feat is that he needed only seven Tests to complete his 1000 runs.Flower now shares the record of completing 1000 runs in a career against India in least Test matches with West Indian Everton Weekes. Weekes, however, is the fastest in terms of innings as he accomplished this feat in four innings lesser than Andy.

- Ashish Nehra became 27th Indian to bag a Test match pair (i.e. duck in both innings) on 36th occasion. He also achieved the dubious distinction of becoming the first Indian to suffer this ignominy against Zimbabwe. The other batsmen to do so against Zimbabwe are Pakistan's Manzoor Elahi (1994-95) and Mushtaq Ahmed (1997-98),West Indian Adrian Griffith (1999-00) and Bangladesh's Manjural Islam and Mohammad Sharif (2000-01).
