375, set by West Indian Brian Lara nine years ago against England, in the final over before tea. <p> Hayden was given the chance to go for 400 by skipper Steve Waugh but was brilliantly caught by Stuart Carlisle soon after the re-start. <p> His innings included 11 sixes and 38 fours and he shared a sixth wicket stand of 233 with Adam Gilchrist, who helped himself to an unbeaten 113 off only 94 balls. <p> Waugh declared as soon as Hayden had been dismissed, leaving Zimbabwe's batsmen to try to save face for their side. <p> The visitors fared well in 31 overs before stumps, compiling 79 runs for the loss of Dion Ebrahim, who was bowled by Jason Gillespie for 29. <p> Trevor Gripper was unbeaten on 37, while Mark Vermeulen was nine not out. <p>  <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"
