Southern Cross Trophy


The Southern Cross Trophy is a cricket trophy that is awarded to the winner of Test series between Australia and Zimbabwe. The Trophy was first contested in a single-Test series in Zimbabwe in 1999, which was accompanied by a series of three One Day Internationals. In the first Test of the second and last series of the Trophy in the 2003-04 season, Matthew Hayden scored a then-record highest Test score by a batsman, a 380 that won him the player of the series award. Hayden surpassed Brian Lara's record 375 with that score, but the record was later retaken by Brian Lara in his 400* against England the next year, still the highest score by a batsman in international cricket.
