5 slowest partnerships in Test history

#4 Alistair Campbell and Heath Streak - 14 off 100 balls (0.84) against New Zealand at Bulawayo in 2000

When New Zealand toured Zimbabwe in 2000, they didn't get off the best possible start in the first Test. After scoring 350 in the first innings thanks to fifties from Alistair Campbell and Heath Streak, the hosts took a first-innings lead after Paul Strang took eight wickets.

That was as good as it got for the hosts as a top-order collapse in the second innings meant it was back to the pair who salvaged the first innings to get them to a decent total. Unfortunately, all they could do was defend against an on-fire Kiwi attack.

When Streak walked to the crease, the score was 86/5 and by the time Campbell departed only 14 more runs were added, despite the pair being at the crease for more than 15 overs. Their stoic defence meant the partnership ended with a run rate of just 0.84 and it wasn't enough to get a good total on the board as the hosts were bundled out for 119 and the visitors went on to win the match by seven wickets.
