11 bolwers in team Indian - a match from 2002

[DomainK]

In this 2002 drawn test India used 11 bowlers against West Indies India used all 11 players as bowlers. I am sure Dravid must have taken the gloves when Ajay Ratra bowled his one over for 1 run. Tendulkar and Srinath took two wickets each. The track apparently was very flat as both teams could play only one innings each. http://usa.cricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/2001-02/IND_IN_WI/SCORECARDS/IND_WI_T4_10-14MAY2002.html This was the third time all 11 bowlers bowled in one innings. The other two were England v Australia at The Oval 1884 and Australia v Pakistan at Faisalabad 1979/80. BTW Tendulkar's bowling abilities are being wasted. See how he took two wickets on a flat track where Kumble managed only one.

Correction: It was the third such instance at that time. There might have been several other instances after that. I just found out one SA v WI match in which SA bowled with all 11 while WI posted a gigantic 747 in first innings chasing SA's 588. Mark Boucher, the wicket keeper even got a wicket in his 1.2 overs (must be the last wicket since his second over was unfinished). http://content-ind.cricinfo.com/statsguru/engine/match/208321.html

It says RD took the glove from Ratra on cricinfo Antigua, this has to be the flatest wicket on a test ground ever Its pointless playing matches there, are there ever any results? or it just used to break records edit: checked stats, ok there have been results, but way too many draws regarding the Kumble situation, note that Tendulkar bowled 20 more over than Kumble's 14
