Jayawardenes sets new world record
20 November 2009 / AP, AHMEDABAD
Mahela Jayawardene and Prasanna Jayawardene broke a 72-year-old world record on Thursday as Sri Lanka took a 334-run first-innings lead on the fourth day of the first test against India.
Sri Lanka declared its first innings at 760-7 -- thanks to a 351-run sixth-wicket stand between Jayawardenes. It is the highest innings total ever scored in India. India, which made 426 in its first innings, was 77-0 in its second innings at tea, with Virender Sehwag making an adventourous 47 and Gautam Gambhir not out on 28. The home team still trails by 257 runs with four sessions remaining in the test. Wicketkeeper Jayawardene dropped Sehwag off a no-ball in Chanaka Welegedara first over before Dammika Prasad found an edge in the next over which flew between the first slip and the wicketkeeper to the boundary.
