2005–06 Zimbabwe Tri-Nation Series

Template:Infobox cricket seriesTemplate:EngvarB Template:Use dmy dates The Videocon Tri-Series was a three-team One Day International cricket tournament played between Zimbabwe, India and New Zealand in Zimbabwe. New Zealand won the tournament, defeating India by 6 wickets in the final in Harare.

Tournament structure

The sides played each other in a double round robin, meaning that each side played four matches, for a total of six matches. A win was worth five points, and a loss zero – however, if the winning team had a run rate (i.e. runs hit per over) higher than 1.25 times that of the opponent, a bonus point was awarded to the winning side, if not it went to the losing side. In the event of a tie or a no-result, each side was to be awarded three points. The top two teams on points went through to the one-match final.
