Zimbabwe escape follow-on after Cremer ton: 1st Test, Day 3 (Harare)

A defiant century stand between skipper Graeme Cremer (102 not out) and Peter Moor (79) helped hosts Zimbabwe avoid a follow-on.

Cremer's unbeaten 102 - his maiden Test ton helped Zimbabwe post 373 in reply to Sri Lanka's first-innings score of 537 all out, a deficit of 164.

Sri Lanka 537 and 5 for 0 (Silva 3*, Karunaratne 1*) lead Zimbabwe 373 (Cremer 102*, Moor 79, Herath 3-97) by 169 runs.
