This helped his side win a historic Test victory over the visiting Pakistanis. He scored Zimbabwe’s first ever double-century in 2002, scoring an unbeaten run of 203 at Queens Sports Club against New Zealand. Whittall fell short of his double-century when Everton Matambanadzo came in to bat. Matambanadzo was able to strike thanks to the New Zealanders who gave field placements that were designed to give easy singles. Finally, the milestone was reached with a boundary through slips.
