New Delhi: Senior batsman Rahul Dravid has surpassed West Indies legend Brian Lara to become the highest run-scorer among batsmen who have batted in the fourth innings of a Test match.
After scoring 36 in the second innings, Dravid has accumulated 1470 runs whenever India have batted last in a Test match surpassing Lara's record of 1440 runs.
'The Wall' has played 52 innings in which he has scored 1470 runs at a healthy average of 43.23 having scored one century and nine 50's. The only century was 103 not out in a drawn Test match at Hamilton back in 1998.
The effort is more praiseworthy as one of his nine half centuries came in a winning cause against Australia at Adelaide in 2003-04.
However Sunil Gavaskar, Ricky Ponting, Ramnaresh Sarwan and Younis Khan have scored four centuries each whenever their team has batted last. World's highest run-scorer Sachin Tendulkar has 1371 runs with three centuries while Gavaskar scored 1398 runs.
