Sameer Dighe became only the second Indian 'keeper to effect four dismissals in a WSC/C&U match after Kiran More who had made four dismissals in two consecutive matches at Perth on 06-12-1991 (v Australia) and on 08-12-1991 (v WestIndies).

Debasish Mohanty, when dismissed Afridi, completed his 50 wickets in ODIs in his 39th match. He became 16th Indian to do so.

Sachin Tendulkar, on 52, surpassed Desmond Haynes' tally of 8648 runs to become the second highest run-scorer in game's history. Now only fellow Indian M Azharuddin (9111 runs in 323 matches) has scored more runs than Tendulkar.

Sachin Tendulkar was dismissed in the nineties for the fourth time in his career. He was dismissed for 90 against Australia at Mumbai on 27-02-1996, for 91 against England at Sharjah on 11-12-1997 and for 95 against Pakistan at Dhaka on 14-01-1998.
