Sachin Tendulkar created history by becoming the highest century-getter as India laid the foundation for a mammoth first innings total in the second cricket Test against Sri Lanka at the Feroze Shah Kotla ground in New Delhi on Dec,10.
Tendulkar cracked an unbeaten 100 for his record 35th hundred, the most in Test cricket, as India reached a strong 245 for three at stumps on the opening day.
It was also Tendulkar’s 125th Test appearance, again matching Gavaskar and the second highest for an Indian. Only Kapil Dev had played in more Tests, 131.
