some dude in the stands had a camera and filmed the whole thing apparently - God knows where that footage is now.Kapil's innings and all of the thrills in the Zimbabwe match was not filmed IIRC, the thinking being that nothing exciting was expected from these 2 teams

One of the great great ODI knocks ever. Probably better than famous Ponting and Dhoni world cup final innings.Waugh's 120 was influential too - sort of a KO style innings in a non-KO game
Definitely an insanely good innings. I'll also add Viv's 189* and Stoinis's 146*That Kapil innings does sound pretty insane. Closest thing I can compare to it off the top of my head would be Symonds in '03 v Pakistan. Came in at 4/50-60ish and took them to 300+ with 143*.
Pretty decent bowling attack too, Wasim and Waqar, maybe Saqlain too.
Hard to beat making 175 from 5/17 though
Saqlain didn't play and that was the mistake Pakistan made. They picked Afridi, and never had the 6th bowler as well. Result was Youis Khan bowling 6 overs of tripe. I think Waqar got banned from bowling too.That Kapil innings does sound pretty insane. Closest thing I can compare to it off the top of my head would be Symonds in '03 v Pakistan.

Waqar bowled beamers at Symonds, clearly deliberate. Past his peak, he responded in frustration to being hit about. Admonished by Shepherd and duly removed.Saqlain didn't play and that was the mistake Pakistan made. They picked Afridi, and never had the 6th bowler as well.

I rate Symonds' semi-final knock against SL that tournament just as highly. That was a very slow, difficult wicket.Saqlain didn't play and that was the mistake Pakistan made.
