From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The West Indian national cricket team toured Zimbabwe in October and November 2003 and played a two-match Test series against the Zimbabwean national cricket team. West Indies won the Test series 1–0. West Indies were captained by Brian Lara and Zimbabwe by Heath Streak. In addition, the teams played a five-match series of Limited Overs Internationals (LOI) which West Indies won 3–2.[1] Before the test series, the West Indian team practiced at the Takashinga Cricket Club, which was officially opened by West Indian captain Brian Lara and a plaque to commemorate the moment was hung at the club house.[2]
