>> Zimbabwe .

(11) Did Zimbabwe do something, as opposed to something being done against Zimbabweans ?

Hope the question makes sense. For instance, is the record something like 'making the highest team score in test cricket' or is it 'being at the receiving end of the highest team score in test cricket'

Sorry for being vague. Terribly short of ideas :)
YES. They did. Though its a dubious record in the sense that it is not a great achievement or one to be proud of :p
