But Zimbabwe lost the series as India won the first test at New Delhi last week.

Flower, with a career-best figure of 232, powered Zimbabwe to 503 runs for the loss of six wickets in the second innings after India had enforced a follow on.

Flower was at the crease with his captain Heath Streak (29) when the play was called off.

India, after amassing 609 runs for six wickets in the first innings, bowled out Zimbabwe for 382 in the first innings.

Following on, Zimbabwe was in trouble in the second knock as it lost three quick wickets.

But former Zimbabwe captain Flower blasted the Indian attack to all corners of the field. His double century was replete with exquisite cover drives, reverse sweeps and huge hits into the stands.

Aggressive batting took another former captain Alistair Campbell to a maiden test hundred with 15 boundaries.

Flower and Campbell created a record by putting up 209 runs - the highest for any wicket for Zimbabwe.

Campbell got out soon after reaching his century. Attempting to hook a bouncer from paceman Zaheer Khan, he was caught at square leg by Sunil Joshi.

Grant Flower was unable to repeat his fine performance of the first innings when he remained unbeaten on 106. He scored just 16 runs before being caught by Indian captain Saurav Ganguly off left-arm spinner Joshi.
