Tendulkar hits second in all-time record list
Tendulkar (185 not out) shared a third-wicket stand of 150 with Rahul Dravid (148) in what proved to be merely an appetiser to a record 249 for the fourth with his captain Sourav Ganguly (128) which included a fearsome onslaught in semi-darkness of 96 runs in 11 overs against the third new ball on the way to 584 for four.
Dravid, Tendulkar and Ganguly effortlessly farmed a regular stream of boundaries as England’s pace attack continued to under-perform in apparently favourable conditions.
